The Opportunity

TRIbuild Solutions is recruiting a Works Manager to join a major civils and infrastructure programme at Sellafield - one of the UK''s most complex and strategically critical nuclear decommissioning sites. This is a permanent role offering long-term security, and the chance to lead a site supervision team on a programme of national significance.

If you''re an experienced Works Manager or Senior Supervisor ready to step into a key delivery role within a challenging, highly regulated nuclear environment, we want to hear from you.



The Role

Reporting to the Project Manager / Project Director, you will carry overall responsibility for the safe, on-programme and on-budget delivery of site works across your area. You will lead and manage the site supervision team - including subcontractors - ensuring the highest standards of HSQE compliance throughout, while supporting the wider project management team in driving performance and programme.

This is a visible, hands-on leadership role that demands strong supervisory experience, sound commercial awareness, and the ability to manage multiple teams in a busy, security-controlled environment.



Key Responsibilities

  • Take overall responsibility for safe delivery and performance of the site team, ensuring works are completed on time, within budget and to specification
  • Direct, coach and support site supervision teams and subcontractors to meet contractual obligations and production targets
  • Lead regular site inspections to ensure works are constructed correctly, safely and in accordance with codes of practice, method statements and risk assessments
  • Ensure all site employees are briefed on safe systems of work, including toolbox talks, task briefings and method statements
  • Manage, order and coordinate the delivery, storage and maintenance of all materials, plant and equipment on site
  • Collaborate with the Site Management Team on work programmes and method statements
  • Ensure appropriate Health & Safety plans are in place; monitor and report on H&S performance and risks
  • Manage the close-out of close calls and unsafe acts; lead investigation of accidents and incidents
  • Assist the Project Manager with client-directed changes and the ongoing maintenance of management plans
  • Monitor, document and report on works progress in accordance with company procedures
  • Attend regular project meetings; input into document control systems and learning from experience reviews
  • Authorise labour, plant and subcontractor timesheets and sign off material receipts


What We''re Looking For

  • Proven experience as a Works Manager or Senior Site Supervisor on major civils, structures or infrastructure projects
  • Experience within a nuclear, MOD or other highly regulated/security-controlled environment is highly desirable
  • SMSTS qualified; valid CSCS card
  • Strong leadership and people management skills, with the ability to influence and motivate mixed teams
  • Sound understanding of CDM regulations, HSQE requirements and behavioural safety
  • Good commercial and financial awareness, including subcontractor management
  • Computer literate; experience of document control systems (e.g. Themis) is advantageous
  • Full UK driving licence preferred


What''s on Offer

  • Salary of circa -65,000 depending on experience
  • Competitive benefits package
  • Permanent position with long-term programme security
  • A high-profile leadership role on one of the UK''s most important infrastructure programmes
