• Keep accurate site records, reports and progress updates
• Ensure materials, plant and resources are available in line with the construction programme
• Liaise with design teams, clients and stakeholders as required on a live project environment
• Resolve on site issues quickly and professionally to avoid delays and maintain momentum

About You:

• Proven experience as a Site Manager on commercial, education or public sector construction projects
• Strong main contractor background with a track record of delivering projects on time and to spec
• Excellent knowledge of site coordination, subcontractor management and construction sequencing
• Strong understanding of health and safety, quality control and site documentation
• Ability to manage fast paced programmes in live or logistically challenging environments
• Good communication skills and a practical leadership style
• Trade, engineering or construction management background would be an advantage
• Focused, organised and committed to high quality project delivery
