Job description

Site Manager – Rochdale – Timber Frame Housing – Open Market
Up to £68,000 basic + £6,000 car allowance + 18% bonus + full package

I’m recruiting on behalf of a growing North West housebuilder that’s making a real mark in the region. They’re backed by strong financial support and a leadership team with serious pedigree in residential development.

Their focus is on building sustainable, high-quality homes, and creating developments with a genuine sense of place.

They’re aiming high in terms of build quality and customer satisfaction, chasing 5-STAR HBF status.

They’ve asked me to help them find an experienced Site Manager for a major open-market housing development in Rochdale. It’s a 160-unit scheme, using a timber frame build method, and with 100 units left to build, they need an experienced manager to take-over from someone moving internally.

Tasks

• Leading day-to-day site operations, managing trades, subcontractors and site teams
• Ensuring work is carried out safely, on time and to a high standard
• Managing build programme, materials, site logistics and quality control
• Working closely with commercial, technical and customer care teams
• Upholding NHBC and HSE standards, ensuring consistent 5-star customer outcomes
• Delivering homes that meet exacting open-market expectations from first fix to handover

Requirements

• Proven experience as a Site Manager on timber frame, open-market housing developments
• A background with established, quality-led housebuilders – preferably 5-STAR builders.
• Strong organisational and leadership skills, with a focus on health & safety, quality and programme
• SMSTS, First Aid and relevant CSCS qualifications

Benefits

• Up to £68,000 basic salary (depending on experience)
• £6,000 car allowance
• 18% annual bonus
• Pension, healthcare and other standard benefits
• A long-term career path with a company still in its growth phase but with solid foundations
