Site Manager - s - East

Your new company
A successful main contractor specialising in new-build residential schemes is now seeking an experienced site manager to oversee a new scheme in East London on a permanent basis. Typically, working across Greater London and the South East, they are extremely well-established, particularly in the social housing sector. Typically, taking on projects of between 20-100 units, they go through an extremely busy period and need to expand their management team.

The role is permanent with the initial scheme being a 25-unit plus commercial flat scheme in Dagenham, due on site imminently.

Your new role
As site manager, you will be project lead and number 1 on site, reporting to a visiting contracts manager once a fortnight. You will oversee the scheme from site-site-up through to client handover, working closely with office-based qs, your site team, the client and sub-contractors. You will be comfortable with short-term programming, subcontract management, quality control, health and safety enforcement and generally managing a tight, busy site.

You will be expected to keep accurate site records, be comfortable with the day-to-day project administration and be able to report monthly on the site progress to the directors.

What you'll need to succeed
You will be a standalone site manager comfortable running your own scheme and all that entails. You will have worked as a site manager previously building similar schemes and have evidence of some stability with previous employers. You will hold valid 1st Aid, CSCS and SMTS qualifications and be looking for a long-term career move on a permanent basis. Due to the site location, ideally you will live within a 45-min commute.

What you'll get in return
A competitive salary plus the opportunity to run a well-procured scheme with a good client from day 1 on site.
