• Managing the day-to-day operations of the site, ensuring work is completed safely, on schedule and within budget.
• Coordinating subcontractors, tradespeople, suppliers and deliveries to maintain an efficient workflow.
• Maintaining exceptional standards of workmanship, quality control and attention to detail throughout every stage of the build.
• Interpreting architectural drawings, specifications and construction programmes to ensure works are delivered accurately.
• Monitoring progress against agreed programmes, identifying potential issues and implementing effective solutions.
• Managing site health and safety, ensuring compliance with relevant legislation and company procedures.
• Liaising professionally with clients, architects, designers and other project stakeholders.
• Overseeing inspections, snagging, finishing works and the successful handover of completed projects.
• Maintaining a clean, organised and professional working environment.
• Building positive working relationships with the wider project team to ensure the successful delivery of each development.

You will ideally have:

• Proven experience as a Site Manager within residential construction, ideally on bespoke new-build homes, high-end renovations or complex refurbishment projects.
• A strong understanding of construction methods, building regulations, drawings and technical specifications.
• Excellent organisational and programme management skills, with the ability to coordinate multiple trades and competing priorities.
• A keen eye for detail and a commitment to maintaining the highest standards of workmanship.
• Strong communication and leadership skills, with the ability to motivate and manage site teams effectively.
• A practical, solutions-focused approach to problem-solving.
• A good understanding of health and safety requirements and site compliance.
