Site Agent

We're looking for an experienced Site Agent to take ownership of a circa £2m Water Treatment infrastructure scheme in Cumbria.
With approximately 12 months of delivery, this is an opportunity to take control of a project from mobilisation through construction, commissioning and handover.

The Role
You'll be responsible for the day-to-day delivery of the scheme, including:

* Overall management of site operations

* Managing the Engineer, Supervisor, direct labour and specialist subcontractors

* Driving the construction programme and short-term look-aheads

* Coordinating civils, mechanical and associated works

* Managing labour, plant, materials and procurement requirements

* Managing RAMS, permits and site documentation

* Driving QA, ITPs and progressive handover

* Monitoring productivity, cost and programme performance

* Maintaining accurate contemporary project records

* Identifying and recording change

* Working closely with Commercial and Planning teams

* Managing client, designer and stakeholder interfaces

* Coordinating commissioning and project close-out
You'll Need

* Proven Site Agent / Site Manager experience

* Strong civil engineering background

* Water / wastewater treatment experience highly advantageous

* Experience taking ownership of projects in the £1m–£5m range

* Strong subcontractor and programme management capability

* SMSTS, Temporary Works Supervisor and appropriate CSCS
This will suit a Site Agent who likes owning their project rather than being one of many managers on a huge scheme.
