4. Prepare weekly site progress reports and submit them electronically to the Project Manager.
5. Ensure that completed jobs are documented with full job packs and sent to the Project Manager promptly to facilitate swift invoicing and cash flow management.

We are looking for an experienced Site Manager with a proven track record in managing projects within the social housing sector, preferably with experience in planned works.
