Senior Site Manager

We are currently seeking an experienced Senior Site Manager to join a leading Tier 1 contractor on a major industrial and logistics development in the South East.

This is a 2.5-year project involving the construction of a large-scale industrial/logistics facility, and we are looking for a Senior Site Manager with a strong background in industrial, warehouse, logistics or shed construction.

The Role:

• Take a senior leadership role on the project, overseeing day-to-day site operations and delivery.
• Manage site teams, subcontractors and key construction packages.
• Drive programme, quality, health & safety and productivity across the project.
• Coordinate closely with the Project Manager, Construction Manager, Design and Commercial teams.
• Ensure works are delivered safely, efficiently and to the required quality standards.
• Manage interfaces between groundworks, structural frame, envelope, M&E and fit-out packages.
• Maintain strong relationships with subcontractors, consultants and the wider project team.

The Candidate:

• Proven experience as a Senior Site Manager on large-scale industrial, logistics, warehouse or shed projects.
• Strong knowledge of industrial construction methodologies, particularly steel frame, cladding, roofing, groundworks and associated external works.
• Ideally experienced working for a Tier 1 main contractor.
• Strong leadership and subcontractor management skills.
• Good understanding of programme, quality and H&S requirements.
• Stable career history and the ability to commit to a 2.5-year project.

Important: The project is based in the South East, but candidates should be open to lodging away from home if required. The contractor has a strong national pipeline, so flexibility to work on projects outside the South East may be required should the regional workload reduce in the future.

This is a long-term opportunity with a major contractor and would suit a Senior Site Manager looking for stability and the opportunity to deliver a significant industrial/logistics scheme from start to completion.
