Summary

The Vacancy

We’re looking for a proactive and safety‑driven Site Supervisor to join our team and take ownership of day‑to‑day construction activities across multiple mains renewal sites. In this role, you’ll ensure projects are delivered safely, efficiently and to programme deadlines, while maintaining strong quality standards and effective team coordination. You’ll play a central part in planning works, guiding teams and subcontractors, maintaining compliance on site, and ensuring all operational, health & safety, environmental and quality expectations are consistently met.

You’ll be the person who keeps operations moving—planning ahead, solving problems, driving high standards and ensuring the work is delivered right first time. If you’re committed, organised and confident in leading people in a site environment, this is your opportunity to step into a key role with real impact.

This role will be predominantly based in our Lea Bridge site (E5 9RJ, opposite Lee Valley Ice Centre), but on occasion you may need to travel to our sites in Oxfordshire. You will be included in the team’s rota of weekend working and being on call, to occur once every 4 weeks.
