Site Manager – Residential Housebuilding
Location: Hazlemere, Buckinghamshire
Are you a hands-on Site Manager with a strong track record of delivering exceptional residential developments?
At Shanly Homes, we don’t just build houses; we create distinctive, high-specification homes designed for modern living.
As a privately owned, multi-award-winning regional housebuilder, we take pride in delivering thoughtfully designed developments in some of the South East’s most sought-after locations.
We are looking for an experienced Site Manager to take ownership of the delivery of Highbury Works, an exclusive development of 16 homes in Hazlemere, Buckinghamshire.
About Highbury Works
Designed in-house by our architectural team, Highbury Works brings together distinctive architecture, thoughtfully designed layouts and premium specifications throughout.
The development comprises six detached and ten semi-detached two-storey homes, offering a collection of two, three and four-bedroom properties ranging from approximately 940 sq ft to 1,600 sq ft.
This is an opportunity to lead a high-quality, low-volume development where attention to detail genuinely matters. You will have ownership of the site, overseeing delivery from the early stages of construction through to completion and handover.
We are looking for someone who is highly organised, quality-focused and confident in taking ownership, with a genuine pride in delivering homes to the highest possible standard and a commitment to getting things right first time.
What you’ll be doing
You will take responsibility for the day-to-day management and successful delivery of the development, ensuring programme, quality, health and safety, and customer expectations are consistently met.
