The Company

This Site Manager's role is with an established London building contractor delivering a broad range of new-build and refurbishment projects across the capital. Their workload covers residential, commercial and mixed-use schemes, and they have a strong pipeline of secured and upcoming projects.

Due to continued growth, they are looking to appoint an experienced Site Manager on a permanent basis. This is not a position tied to one particular project; the successful Site Manager will move between projects as their workload develops.

The Site Manager will coordinate subcontractors, manage programme and quality, maintain high health and safety standards and ensure works are delivered in accordance with drawings and specifications.

• Coordinating subcontractors and monitoring progress against programme
• Managing site health and safety and maintaining site records
• Carrying out quality inspections and ensuring defects are dealt with promptly
• Liaising with the project team, consultants and client representatives
• Managing short-term programmes and upcoming site requirements
• Driving projects through to successful completion and handover

Experience Required

The successful Site Manager will have a proven track record of delivering building projects from the groundworks stage through to handover.

RC frame experience is essential, and candidates with a trade background would be particularly well suited to the position.

The Site Manager should also have:

• Strong main contractor or principal contractor experience
• Extensive RC frame construction knowledge
• A relevant trade or construction background
• SMSTS
• CSCS Card
• First Aid at Work
• Good knowledge of current health and safety requirements
• Strong communication and subcontractor management skills

Salary & Package

The successful Site Manager can expect a salary of 60,000- 68,000, dependent on experience, together with a competitive benefits package and the opportunity for long-term progression with an established contractor.
