These range from extensions, refurbishments and utility upgrades to specialised fit-outs and phased works, often delivered through repeat business with established clients.

• Ensure compliance with Health & Safety standards, company procedures and statutory regulations on all sites.
• Produce short-term programmes and logistics plans aligned with wider contract requirements.
• Maintain strong communication with clients, supply chain and project teams to ensure smooth delivery.
• Monitor quality and performance, resolving issues proactively to uphold client expectations.
• Keep accurate site records, reports and handovers in accordance with internal processes.
We're looking for someone who:
• Has proven experience managing small works or refurbishment projects with multiple concurrent delivery streams.
• Demonstrates strong leadership, organisation and communication skills.
• Holds relevant construction qualifications (SMSTS essential; CSCS/First Aid desirable).
• Has practical construction knowledge and a hands-on approach to site leadership.
• Is adaptable, proactive and able to build strong relationships with clients and teams alike.
Your role will give you autonomy and variety across a portfolio of smaller contracts that are often complex and high-impact for clients, offering a rewarding breadth of experience.
