Senior Site Manager

Senior Site Manager
Location: Edinburgh
Salary: £65,000 – £74,000 + £6,000 car allowance
Bonus: Up to 20% based on KPIs

I''m recruiting on behalf of a long-standing client – a highly regarded national housebuilder known for delivering high-spec residential sites with consistency, pride, and professionalism.

They’re now looking to appoint a Senior Site Manager to lead one of their most important developments – someone who can take control from groundworks through to final handover, while maintaining tight standards on quality, safety, and programme.

This isn’t a firefighting role or a rescue mission. It’s a chance to step into a well-resourced, well-planned build with a business that sets you up to succeed – and expects the same in return.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Leading your site team and subcontractors from day one through to final handover
• Driving quality on every plot – right first time, every time
• Maintaining best-in-class health & safety culture
• Ensuring customer satisfaction scores are where they should be – high
• Reporting and collaborating with senior leadership to deliver results

What They’re Looking For:

• A confident, senior-level site lead with volume residential experience
• Someone who’s comfortable with structure and works well within a national framework
• Tech-literate – you''ll be using iPads and systems every day
• Calm under pressure, solutions-driven, and not afraid to raise standards
• A natural leader – respected by your team and known for delivering

The Extras:

• Structured bonus scheme (up to 20%)
• £6k car allowance
• Clear career development plans – future Project Manager opportunities
• Stability, professionalism, and a team-first culture
