Are you an experienced Site Supervisor who leads from the front? Looking to take ownership of a skilled civils team on a secure, long-term site? Our client is hiring a Working Site Supervisor to join their growing business — this is a hands-on role, based permanently on a secure site in Hertfordshire.

About the Role:

As the new Working Site Supervisor, you'll be responsible for coordinating a civils team delivering both maintenance and project works. You’ll work closely with another on-site supervisor (managing a separate team), and be in daily contact with their friendly, responsive office-based team.

This role is ideal for someone who is calm, organised, patient, and highly effective at communication — with a proactive, can-do attitude and a strong commitment to quality and safety.

• Hours: Monday to Friday, 8am–4pm
• Location: One secure site – Royston, Hertfordshire
• Contract: Permanent (PAYE or CIS options available)
• 28 days holiday (including bank holidays)
• Company pension scheme
• On-site parking
• Long-term site-based role — no constant travelling!

Key Responsibilities of the Working Site Supervisor:

• Lead and coordinate day-to-day operations of the civils team
• Enforce safe systems of work and on-site health & safety standards
• Carry out regular quality and safety inspections
• Liaise with clients, other site supervisors, and the office team
• Handle on-site problem solving and issue resolution
• Manage timekeeping and team performance
• Order materials as required

What We’re Looking For:

• Minimum 5 years’ experience on construction/civils sites
• SSSTS (preferred)
• First Aid at Work or EFAW (preferred)
• Strong communication and leadership skills
• Ability to stay calm under pressure and manage multiple priorities
