Site Manager

About you

You are the sort of Site Manager who takes pride in running a safe, well organised site. You enjoy being the person people can rely on to keep things moving and make sure nothing gets missed. If something needs doing, you do not wait to be asked. You get on with it.

This is a four week freelance Site Manager contract based at Solihull Gate Retail Park, overseeing drainage works. The drainage package is being delivered by specialist subcontractors, so you do not need to be a drainage expert. What matters is your ability to lead the site, maintain excellent health and safety standards and keep the project running smoothly.

Your experience

You will have experience working as a Site Manager on construction, refurbishment or civil engineering projects and be confident managing subcontractors on site.

You will hold a CSCS Black Card or equivalent, SMSTS, First Aid, Asbestos Awareness, Fire Marshal, Manual Handling and Working at Heights qualifications.

You will be comfortable carrying out site inductions, completing site reports and making sure health and safety standards are maintained throughout the project.

What you will be doing with your experience

You will take responsibility for the day to day management of the site, ensuring work is delivered safely, efficiently and to programme.

You will complete inductions, oversee specialist subcontractors, carry out site inspections, produce site reports and deal with any issues before they become problems.

This is a role for someone who is proactive rather than reactive. If something needs your attention, you will get stuck in and make sure it is resolved.

About the business

You will be joining a well established principal contractor that delivers refurbishment, fit out and construction projects across the industrial, commercial and education sectors throughout the UK. The business has built a strong reputation through repeat business, long term client relationships and a straightforward approach to delivering projects safely and professionally. They continue to grow nationally while maintaining a hands on, supportive culture where experienced Site Managers are trusted to take ownership of their projects.
