Site Manager – 16-Week Contract

Location: Glasgow 
Start Date: 19th October – potentially earlier
Duration: 16 weeks
Project Value: £700k

We are currently looking for an experienced Site Manager to join a £700k small civils project involving the construction of a new car park and subsequent highway works.

The project is taking place within a live operational environment, so we are looking for someone who is confident managing a site, dealing with subcontractors and communicating directly with the client and other stakeholders.

The Role:

  • Managing the day-to-day running of the site
  • Overseeing the subcontractor and two full-time foremen
  • Managing new drainage and attenuation tank works
  • Overseeing emergency service access and site logistics
  • Moving onto highway works following completion of the car park
  • Reviewing GPE surveys and project information
  • Managing permits and site paperwork
  • Dealing directly with the client on a daily basis
  • Managing access and stakeholder engagement
  • Ensuring works are completed safely and to programme

About You:

  • Previous experience working as a Site Manager on civils projects
  • Strong small civils and groundworks experience
  • SMSTS essential
  • NRSWA likely to be essential
  • Experience working in a live operational environment would be beneficial
  • Previous experience within a large construction group would be advantageous
  • Confident dealing with clients and stakeholders
  • Calm under pressure with a professional approach
  • Strong communication and organisational skills
  • Able to work independently and take ownership of the site

For the first few weeks, there will be additional support on site before you take full responsibility for the day-to-day running of the project.

This is a great opportunity for an experienced Site Manager looking for a 16-week civils contract with responsibility for both site operations and client management.
