About us

We are Churchill Retirement Living, the fastest growing company in the UK retirement house building sector, and we have exciting opportunities available to join our expanding Construction team.

We’re a family-owned business and going places. We’re proud of what we do, and the people we work with. We have ambitious growth plans for the future, now employing over 700 people and growing all the time.

We pride ourselves on building quality, purpose-built one and two bedroom apartments in desirable locations across the UK for those looking for an independent lifestyle in later life. Developments are designed to take away all the hassle and fears that can be experienced by older people and provide security, peace of mind and independence.

We’ve won a host of awards; most recently we have been recognised by The Sunday Times as the 2nd Best Company to Work for in the UK in 2019 and became the first ever retirement living specialist to be crowned overall ‘Housebuilder of the Year’ by the WhatHouse? Awards 2016.

About the role

We’re looking for an experienced Senior Site Manager for our successful South West region to lead the new development in Exeter.

Using specified drawings and instructions, you’ll manage the entire construction cycle to ensure all deadlines are met and the development is built to Company and NHBC standards.

You’ll be assertive and calm under pressure to meet numerous construction deadlines, whilst liaising with a wide range of external suppliers, specialists and in‑house teams to achieve critical objectives, without compromising quality standards in any way.

To achieve maximum co‑operation, the ability to influence is key. You’ll be comfortable supervising all onsite staff and will display discretion and confidentiality at all times.
