Overview

Raise Projects Senior Site Manager Paintworks, Bristol

Walker & Sloan are delighted to be exclusively partnering with Raise Projects for a key leadership opportunity within one of Bristol's most progressive and people-centred construction management firms.

About Raise Projects

Raise Projects is redefining modern construction delivery across the South West. Founded on the belief that a building is much more than a place, it’s a space that improves life today and for future generations. They have built an enviable reputation for delivering exceptional projects across commercial, education, healthcare, and residential sectors.

Operating from their modern headquarters at The Printworks, Bristol, Raise Projects combine high-quality project delivery with a dynamic, social, and supportive team culture. Led by Ryan and Simon, the business is built on trust, professionalism, and a genuine passion for developing their people and their careers.

The Senior Site Manager Role

As a Senior Site Manager with Raise Projects, you’ll take full responsibility for the on-site delivery of high-quality projects up to around £5 million in value.

You’ll lead from the front - ensuring exceptional standards of quality, safety, and client satisfaction - while managing all aspects of project delivery from pre-start to handover. Working autonomously, you’ll have the authority to run your site your way, supported by a responsive and professional head-office team.

Key responsibilities

• Overseeing all day-to-day site operations and project delivery
• Managing subcontractors, site teams, and suppliers to ensure efficient progress
• Upholding the highest standards of health, safety, and quality compliance
• Coordinating with clients, design teams, and stakeholders to maintain positive relationships
• Monitoring programme performance and ensuring delivery to budget and schedule
• Preparing site reports, maintaining records, and supporting project reviews

This is a role for a proactive, experienced manager who takes ownership and pride in delivering exceptional results.

Required Qualifications & Experience

The ideal candidate will bring:

• Proven experience as a Senior Site Manager within main contracting or construction management
• A strong track record of delivering projects up to c. £5m in value
• Excellent leadership, communication, and organisational skills
• A meticulous approach to health, safety, and quality
• The ability to work autonomously while maintaining client and team relationships
• Relevant construction qualifications (SMSTS, CSCS, First Aid, etc.)

What Raise Projects Offer

Raise Projects offer a competitive salary, matched pension, generous holidays, and genuine opportunities for career progression.

The Directors, Ryan & Simon are committed to providing every team member with a true career move, not just another role. You’ll join a close-knit, forward-thinking team with a strong social element, working on diverse local projects within a collaborative and modern environment.

Location

The role is based at Raise Projects new office at The Paintworks, Bristol, with travel to project sites across the Bristol region and surrounding areas.
