Job description

We require an experienced Site/Logistics Supervisor to work for a leading main contractor on a commercial project in Oxford, with experience of working on commercial projects GBP5M+ and a strong background in construction logistics.

Site/Logistics Supervisor

The ideal candidate will be an experienced Site Supervisor (minimum 3 years) with experience of commercial projects GBP5M+, including responsibility for site logistics planning and execution.

The Site/Logistics Supervisor role:

As a site-based Msupervisor you will be fully responsible for the successful operational delivery of logistics on site. The role requires demonstrable experience in developing and managing construction logistics plans, traffic management strategies, delivery scheduling, site access control, and the coordination of materials handling to maintain safe and efficient site operations.

This includes the organisation and oversight of site logistics, storage areas, hoarding, waste management, delivery routes, and plant and equipment movement. This is a key role that carries significant responsibility, not only in managing a site team and sub-contractors, but also in presenting the company professionally at all times and protecting its integrity and reputation.

Appropriate qualifications include SSSTS

The ability to communicate effectively is required in order to manage customer and stakeholder relationships, including local authorities and logistics partners, in addition to strong planning and organisational skills to deliver operational excellence and efficiency. Proficiency in coordinating with logistics managers, suppliers, haulage teams, and offsite manufacturing partners is essential.

Candidates must demonstrate strong leadership skills, including experience in leading site teams and major programmes of work. You will require the confidence and ability to lead, influence, and communicate clearly with others to deliver targets, while maintaining strict control over site safety, operational sequencing, and logistics-driven scheduling.
