Assistant Site Manager - Residential Finishing & Completion Are you an expert at the "final mile"? We are looking for a sharp, detail-oriented Assistant Site Manager to join our team as we push a major residential social housing project across the finish line. If you have a keen eye for quality, a knack for managing subcontractors, and a drive to reach Practical Completion (PC) , we want to hear from you.

Client Liaison: Act as a professional point of contact for the client, providing updates and ensuring their expectations are met. Path to PC: Work closely with the Site Manager to compile all necessary documentation and physical works required to achieve Practical Completion. What We're Looking For We need someone who understands the nuances of Residential/Social Housing projects. This role requires a "project-focused" mindset rather than a maintenance or planned works background. Essential Experience: Proven Track Record: Experience as an ASM on residential new build or major social housing refurbishments. Technical Knowledge: A solid understanding of fire alarms, electrical compliance, and internal finishes. Communication: The ability to be firm but fair with contractors and professional with clients.
