Electrical Site Manager - Office Refurbishments / Security Upgrades

I'm working with a large privately owned contractor based in the North West who specialise in fit-out, maintenance, and refurbishment projects across the UK.

They are looking for an Electrical Site Manager to work in a roving capacity across multiple office refurbishment projects. The works are predominantly security-focused, including electrical security doors, access control, CCTV installations, and associated electrical upgrades.

This role will be heavily focused on quality assurance, inspections, and sign-off of completed works rather than day-to-day trade supervision. You will report into an office-based Project Manager and travel between live projects to ensure works are delivered to the required standard.

Responsibilities

• Roving Electrical Site Manager covering multiple office refurbishment projects
• Carrying out QA inspections and checking completed electrical works
• Ensuring works are completed in line with drawings, specifications, and compliance standards
• Signing off completed works and identifying defects or remedial actions
• Liaising with subcontractors, site teams, and the Project Manager
• Maintaining accurate QA records and reporting progress/issues

Key Requirements

• Proven experience as an Electrical Site Manager or similar supervisory role
• Strong background in electrical works, ideally security systems (access control, CCTV, security doors)
• Good understanding of QA processes and compliance
• SMSTS, CSCS, and First Aid essential
• Ability to work independently and travel between sites
