- Lead construction activity on site, ensuring build quality, programme, and safety standards are met
- Manage Assistant Site Managers, Trainees and subcontractors—setting expectations and supporting development
- Chair subcontractor meetings, record outcomes and hold teams accountable for delivery
- Drive health, safety and environmental compliance across the entire site
- Oversee build sequencing, short-term and long-term programming, and utility coordination
- Ensure compliance with NHBC, Zurich, statutory authority and technical standards
- Coordinate drawings, Employer’s Requirements and buildability reviews
- Lead site presentation and set the tone for site culture and professionalism
- Monitor progress, maintain accurate records, and report status to Project or Contracts Managers
- Support cost control, plant usage, materials tracking and resource planning
- Act as a visible leader—engaging with clients, consultants and internal departments to solve problems and keep momentum
