You'll oversee multiple projects across London and the South East while helping drive the continued expansion of a business with ambitious growth plans.

Are you a Contracts Manager with experience in fencing, groundworks, or landscaping? Do you enjoy coordinating multiple sites, leading teams, and building strong client relationships? Are you looking to join a close-knit company where your contribution is recognised and there is a clear route to Senior Contracts Manager?

This specialist contractor delivers commercial fencing for both main contractors and end-user clients.
