Site Manager - Fit Out

Birmingham | £50,000 - £58,000 DOE | Permanent

An award-winning interior design and build consultancy, known for delivering standout hospitality, office, retail and heritage projects, is looking to strengthen its site team with an experienced Site Manager.

This business has built a strong reputation across hospitality, office and retail sectors, delivering projects - including work on listed buildings and Michelin-guide dining spaces - through craftsmanship, precision and a genuinely collaborative way of working.

This is a chance to take real ownership of sites, lead teams from the front, and play a key part in projects that consistently raise the bar.

About You

You're a hands-on leader with a strong fit-out background and the site management experience to match. You thrive under pressure, take pride in getting the details right, and know how to keep a site running safely, on programme and on budget - without losing sight of quality.

• 5+ years' experience in commercial fit-out
• 3+ years' experience as a Site Manager, managing multiple trades and sub-contractors
• A track record in shopfitting, hospitality, leisure or QSR fit-out projects

• Running the day-to-day on site, including managing sub-contractors and the programme
• Owning health & safety - inductions, toolbox talks, RAMS, weekly checks
• Driving quality and holding the finish to a high standard
• Building strong relationships with clients and sub-contractors alike

You’ll Need

• Trade background or construction-related qualification
• SMSTS

PASMA and Fire Marshall are a bonus but not essential.

If you want to work for a business that backs quality workmanship and gives its site leaders real autonomy, this is worth a conversation.
