Site Manager | London & The South East | Permanent | c£75,000 - £80,000 | Start June 2024

The Company:
Picture a main contractor so solid you could build a skyscraper on their reputation alone. They're the Jon Rahm of construction-financially secure, laser-focused, and annoyingly good at what they do. This isn't some two-bit outfit with a vision board; they're running major projects across London and the South East like it's a game of Monopoly and they've got all four railroads.
And the best part? This job is the first of 250 stores to roll out over the next three years. Ninety of them are in London alone. If you think that sounds like job security, you'd be right.

The Project:
Here's the kicker: the first one's in Birmingham. Yeah, it's like booking a holiday to Ibiza and ending up in Bognor Regis. But it's a £3 million refurbishment of an old retail space, and it's the first of many. Roof going on, extension to the side, some paving out front, mezzanine floor coming out...basically, it's the building equivalent of a midlife crisis makeover, minus the Botox.
Pull this one off, and you'll be right in the mix of a three-year rollout programme that'll make your CV look like the Magna Carta of retail projects.

Who They Want:
They're not looking for a clipboard warrior who hides in the site office and only comes out for tea breaks. No, they want someone who:

Lives in or around London - Close enough that the M25 doesn't feel like the Seven Circles of Hell.
Has been the No1 on projects from £200k to £5m - No sidekick business. If you've only ever held the iPad, this isn't for you.
Loyalty is your thing - If your CV reads like you've been on a gap year across construction sites, move along. These guys want commitment, not a three-month cameo.
Technical know-how - You can talk cladding, refurbs, and fit-outs without looking like you've just Googled it.
Retail Sector Experience - Ideally food retail. If you've built a Tesco, Sainsbury's, Co-Op, or even just know your way around the meat aisle, you're in good shape.
Client Whisperer - You can charm the shirt off a client without promising the moon. When things go sideways (because they always do), you don't hide behind email-you pick up the phone.
Travel Flexibility - If the job needs you in Birmingham or some far-flung corner of the South East, you're there with a packed bag and a playlist of motorway classics.

The Perks:
£75k - £80k Salary - Enough to pay London rent and still afford a Pret subscription.
Projects in and around London - Mostly. There is that Birmingham thing.
Career growth - Join now, and you'll be part of something bigger than just bricks and mortar.

I know this ad's had a bit of fun, but let's be clear-I'm a serious recruiter working with a serious contractor, and this is a seriously good opportunity. If you've got the experience and the grit to handle projects that matter, I want to hear from you.
