Job description

Senior Site Manager wanted

make their future HQ flawless before anyone notices

Senior Site Manager - Finchley 75k- 85k Permanent

Ever built a building you know will soon be a client's HQ - and pictured them spotting every tiny flaw in their first board meeting? Perfect, we need you.

We're looking for a Senior Site Manager to help a Project Manager deliver a 16m scheme in Finchley: 20+ apartments above commercial space, with the commercial area being the client's future Headquarters. High-end fit out in the commercial area means flawless finishes are mandatory - because when the client eventually moves in, and inevitably holds their first board meeting, the last thing we want is a crooked door handle or a lopsided skirting stealing the spotlight.

You’ll be leading a team across QA, programme, and finishes. Some days you’ll be gently reminding a painter that one more touch really is necessary. Other days, the tiler will argue that grout doesn’t need to be that straight - cue your best deadpan stare. Minor imperfections on a future HQ? Unthinkable.

You’ll be the sort of Senior Site Manager who:

• Has time spent with previous main contractors - stability counts.
• Has an exceptional eye for detail and can spot a misaligned tile from across the site.
• Can lead QA, programme, and finishes while keeping the team sane.
• Smiles while insisting that every wall, ceiling, and joinery line is perfect.
• Knows that the client may not be in the building yet, but their first board meeting will be unforgiving.

The company:

A grown‑up main contractor with a reputation for delivering complex schemes across London and the Home Counties. 120m turnover, growing steadily, focused on quality delivery and developing the next generation of construction leaders. No gimmicks, just properly run sites and good people.

If the thought of running a project that will soon host serious board meetings - and keeping it perfect until the client arrives - makes you grin rather than groan, give me a call. Discreet chat, no hard sell.
