• Compiling and recording site documentation, including inductions, permits to work, RAMS and safety briefings.
• Delivering RAMS briefings, site inductions, toolbox talks and daily briefings.
• Making sure subcontractors manage health and safety on site, including all daily inspections and pre-use checks.
• Doing quality checks against the contract specification and statement of requirements, and keeping accurate records of site resources, materials and plant.
• Keeping site diaries and allocations, records of subcontractor activities and subcontractor performance reports.
• Working with clients, consultants and subcontractors on all site activities.

To be considered, you will need:

• A strong understanding of programme delivery, good knowledge of construction techniques and a working knowledge of NEC contracts.
• Familiarity with the relevant construction legislation, including HSEQ.
• Commercial awareness, including experience managing budgets with a focus on quality and cost control.
• Strong communication, problem-solving, negotiation and IT skills.
• An HNC or above, preferably in an engineering discipline.
• SMSTS, SSSTS or an equivalent NVQ.
• CSCS or SHEA.
• First Aid.
• CDM awareness.
• Confined Space (Medium Risk).
