Health & Safety: Leading by example to ensure the site is a safe environment for all sub-contractors and visitors.
Sub-contractor Management: Coordinating various trades to ensure a seamless workflow.
Customer Excellence: Assisting with home demonstrations and ensuring every home is "snag-free" for its new owners.
Who You Are
We are looking for someone who understands the "rhythm" of a busy, volume-driven site.
Experience: You have a proven track record working for a large volume housebuilder. You understand the pace and the technical requirements of residential construction.
Ambition: You aren't content staying an Assistant forever. You are looking for a company that will mentor you and provide a clear pathway to becoming a Site Manager.
Certifications: You must hold a valid CSCS Card (Supervisory), SMSTS, and First Aid at Work.
Local Knowledge: Ideally, you are based within a commutable distance of Herne Bay and understand the local sub-contractor landscape.
What's in it for you?
