Job description

It's fun to work in a company where people truly BELIEVE in what they're doing!

We're committed to bringing passion and customer focus to the business.

We're currently recruiting for an Assistant Site Manager to join our Eastern Division, for our Wycke Place development in Maldon, Essex.

What does it take to be a successful Assistant Site Manager at Crest?

To carve a career as a quality Assistant Site Manager with Crest, you’ll be proactive and supportive to your manager and the subcontractors who supply you. It is paramount that you are a strong relationship builder to ensure quality workmanship and collaborative problem-solving when faced with challenges and preventing reoccurrences.

You will work closely with other departments in the region as part of the development and construction phases. This is not an isolated role but a key central point in the delivery of quality homes. Your subcontractors will need guidance and direction so that you can work together to reach your targets and deliver an outstanding final product.

The role requires resilience and drive to deliver to the build programme both on budget and to deadlines. You will be naturally motivated to do so and will never compromise on the finishing of the product.

Working for Crest means delivering house types where each plot may present new challenges, requiring innovative thinking and flexibility. We build more than 'good' homes; we build exceptional ones.

As a Health and Safety Ambassador, you will ensure your site setup and operations are consistently in line with both Crest and industry standards and practices, from the moment you step onto site, through to the final handover of keys to a property.

We believe communication and good leadership get the job done - we encourage you to develop your leadership skills in the role of Assistant Site Manager while you work your way up to the role of Site Manager.

You will have at least two years’ experience in a similar assistant-level role, mixed with your tools and trades knowledge in any specialised area. You’ll also need experience in building traditional homes, with a consistent track record of completing projects.

The Company

Crest Nicholson is a leading developer of quality homes and thriving, sustainable communities.

We create great places for our customers to live, selecting desirable locations for our developments and taking a holistic approach to the design of our homes and their surroundings.

Attractive placemaking helps us deliver appealing and well-connected communities where people and nature can thrive.

As an employer of choice, we offer an extensive range of benefits, including:

• Company Bonus Scheme
• Private healthcare and cash plan options
• 25 days' annual leave
• Cycle to work scheme
• Share save scheme

We are an inclusive employer; the Company will consider flexible working requests for all roles.

We seek to be an ethical and progressive employer which encourages a culture of openness, creativity, and continuous professional development and which rewards the effectiveness and loyalty of our employees as an equal opportunities employer.
