About The Role
We are looking for a highly organised, proactive and professional Senior Site Administrator to join our Construction team.
This is a varied role that combines responsibility for the day-to-day administration and smooth running of a dedicated construction site with wider site coordination responsibilities across a number of live developments. Acting as the primary administrative lead for your assigned site, you will ensure site operations run efficiently while also supporting consistency, best practice and operational effectiveness across the wider site administration function.
Working closely with site teams, Site Administrators and internal support departments, you will play a key role in maintaining high administrative standards, supporting site mobilisation activities and ensuring our project offices operate smoothly and professionally.
Important Notice - Location Transition
This role will initially be based at our Horlicks Quarter development in Slough, providing an opportunity to gain a comprehensive understanding of our systems, processes and ways of working. The successful candidate will then transition to our Hemel Hempstead development from approximately July 2027, where they will continue in the role supporting the day-to-day operation of the site and wider site coordination activities. Applicants should be comfortable travelling to and working from both locations.
