You'll be joining a well-established management team where standards are high, the programme is moving quickly and there is a genuine focus on delivering quality homes and a first-class customer experience.

Working closely with the Site Manager and wider project team, you'll have responsibility across your plots and subcontractors, helping to keep the build moving while ensuring quality, safety and programme remain where they need to be.

This is a particularly good opportunity for an Assistant Site Manager who enjoys a busy environment and wants to develop their career alongside experienced people who know what good looks like.

  • Carrying out inspections and ensuring works are completed to the required standard.
  • Maintaining excellent health and safety standards across the site.
  • Working closely with Customer Care to ensure a high standard of finish and customer experience.
  • Coordinating with the wider commercial, technical and construction teams.
  • Helping to maintain an organised, efficient and positive site environment.

We're looking for someone who:

  • Must have previous experience as an Assistant Site Manager within residential construction.
  • Has a strong understanding of NHBC standards and quality-led housebuilding.
  • Takes pride in delivering homes to a high standard.
  • Has excellent customer care awareness and understands the importance of the homeowner experience.
  • Confident managing subcontractors and working to demanding programmes.
  • Works well as part of an established management team but can also take ownership of their own responsibilities.
  • Previous experience working for a PLC or volume housebuilder will be highly regarded.

You'll be joining a business with a strong reputation for quality, an experienced team around you and the opportunity to develop your career as the development progresses.

What's on offer:

  • Salary up to 58,000
  • Car Allowance
  • Bonus
  • Excellent Benefits Package
  • Genuine Career Progression

If you're an experienced Assistant Site Manager looking for a new challenge with an established team, a busy programme and the opportunity to work on a development where quality and customer care genuinely matter, send your cv below or call our Brighton office.
