They are passionate about delivering vibrant, bespoke, and sustainable spaces and their repeat order book would indicate how much of a difference they've made to their clients along the way! Currently engaged on a varied academic transformation scheme on the northern outskirts, close to the M4, they are in need of a Site Manager to make the designs a reality. The fresh internals will include new heating, plumbing and ventilation systems, a commercial kitchen, a mix of stud and suspended ceilings, and externally there's a new sports pitch, staircasing and fencing so it's imperative that their Site Manager has knowledge of relevant packages plus a sound technical understanding who's able to read and comprehend and, where necessary, query technical data and drawings. We're seeking a Site Manager with a strong fitout background who has knowledge of Internal trades and M & E but also has some externals knowledge to boot. This is a fast track programme, so someone used to working in this environment, able to think on their feet, work decisively, and lead the project to completion is what's needed! The usual SMSTS, CSCS and First aid at work are imperative as are good communication, IT and management skills - whilst there will be support from the senior leadership team, we're seeking someone able to work autonomously. This is a 12 week contract starting imminently so if you're keen to hear more, please call us today on (phone number removed)!
