The business currently turns over in excess of £100 million per annum, and has a reputation for a modern and quality-focused approach. They have live projects with a variety of the top house-builders in the UK and have a full pipeline secured for 2026. Having met the directors of the business, I can confidently say this groundwork contractor is looking to stand out from their competition, harnessing innovation, a fresh brand image, and a focus on being the best at what they do. I have heard this not only from people who work at this company, but also from people who work for several of the main competitors! About the Role: We have been asked to find a Contracts Manager who has a proven background working for residential groundwork subcontractors. Usual packages include foundations and externals for residential plots across the Home Counties, so suitable candidates must come from this world. The role will report directly to the Operations Director of this division, and you ll be responsible for overseeing several live sites while helping plan at the preconstruction phases for new sites. Your role will be to help support the on-site management, with maintaining programme requirements, while also controlling costs. Quality, safety, and professionalism are at the forefront of what this business stands for, so again, these remits will also fall under your control for your selected projects. This will be a client-facing position, and the successful individual will need to uphold (or even help improve) the standards of the business (which are very good). Geographically, this role will require travel around Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, and nearby areas. About the Requirements: This part is simple.

And are you based in or around the Northern Home Counties, so this location works for you daily? If the answer is yes to each of these questions, then I d like to talk with you. About the Salary: For the successful individual, our client is prepared to pay a market-leading salary and package to make sure they secure the best person. They understand that everyone looks for progression as they make career moves, and the bracket listed above is on offer (i.e. £100,000 - £120,000), plus the additions of a company car or car allowance, pension, health care, and bonuses will be available. How to Apply: I am more than happy to discuss this opportunity with people over the phone or face-to-face in a fully confidential manner. This is an incestuous sector, and I fully understand the importance of keeping things discrete. Alternatively, it would be ideal to see a copy of your CV to understand your previous experience and employment. In line with GDPR, nothing will be done with your CV/details until we have discussed the role in detail anyway (including who the employer is), but having gained an understanding of your formal past, this may help when we come to talk and discuss the option. Either way, my contact details are listed below: Email (remove all spaces): ltd . com Tel: (phone number removed) About Me, Your Consultant: My name is Andrew Jackson, and I am one of the founding directors of Cityscape Recruitment Ltd. I have over 20 years of experience in civil engineering & construction recruitment, during which time, I have specialised in the niche sectors of concrete frames, groundworks, basement construction, and demolition. So, what does that mean for you? It means you won t be trusting your career to someone who doesn t understand the market. I work with the vast majority of the groundwork & concrete frame businesses in the UK, and I can not only introduce you, but I can also give you up-to-date information on each of them, helping you make an informed decision so you can take your career forward. I ve been doing this for a fair while now, and I ve maintained a positive reputation doing what I do because I don t tell people whatever it takes; I tell them the truth. My job is to get you the options you want, give you the information you need, and then let you decide what feels right.
