Site Manager

About the Role On behalf of our client - a respected main contractor - we are looking for an experienced, highly organized Site Manager to take charge of a 4.5m new-build school and car park facility in Leicestershire. The scheme is secured and currently on site under a JCT Design and Build contract. Main works involve SIPs (Structural Insulated Panels) construction, associated groundworks, car park infrastructure, and full fit-out works. The overall program runs for approximately 45 weeks, with a dedicated Site Manager required on-site around November 2026. While you will be taking point on this specific educational project, our client is actively expanding and seeking a strong manager for a long-term position. Permanent employment is strongly preferred, though a long-term self-employed (CIS) arrangement will be considered for the right candidate. Key Responsibilities Oversee day-to-day site operations, managing sub-contractors, suppliers, and direct labor on site. Enforce strict Health and Safety standards, quality management, and delivery against program schedules. Coordinate modern methods of construction (SIPs panel installation, structural interface, and internal fit-out). Manage site logistics, groundworks, and external hard landscaping/car park delivery. Conduct site inductions, RAMS reviews, toolbox talks, and maintain accurate daily site logs. Act as the direct point of contact for project managers, client representatives, and local stakeholders. ..... full job details .....
