About Next Gen Group
Next Gen Group is a fast-growing, ISO-accredited principal contractor specialising in building envelope packages across England. Established in 2022, we have quickly built a reputation for delivering complex building envelope projects - including re-cladding, fire remediation, roofing and scaffolding - through fully integrated, in-house teams.
We manage design, procurement and delivery under one roof, giving our clients a single point of accountability and our people a dynamic, collaborative environment to thrive in. Our client base includes Vistry Group, Taylor Wimpey, Crest Nicholson, Barratt Redrow and Regent College London.
The Role
We're looking for an experienced Senior Site Manager to take full ownership of a facade re-cladding project in South London, from mobilisation through to handover. This is primarily a coordination-led role managing the interfaces between trades, design, materials procurement and programme on a live, occupied building.
You will be the single point of accountability on site, working closely with your Contracts Manager, Design Manager and Commercial Manager, and representing Next Gen Group to the client and their professional team. You will be expected to run a tight, well-organised site, manage resident-impact proactively, and maintain the high standards of safety and quality we are known for.
Key Responsibilities
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
- Take full site ownership from mobilisation to practical completion, including setting up and maintaining site logistics on occupied buildings
- Coordinate trades and subcontractors to programme, managing interfaces and sequencing to minimise disruption to residents
- Maintain a live programme, identifying float and risk proactively and escalating to the Contracts Manager where milestones are under pressure
- Manage scaffolding and access sequencing in close coordination with Next Gen's in-house scaffolding and access division
- Oversee materials procurement coordination, ensuring deliveries align with programme and storage constraints on constrained urban sites
- Lead on health & safety compliance, including CDM obligations, RAMS production and review, and works in occupied Higher Risk Buildings
- Conduct regular site inspections, toolbox talks and inductions, acting decisively on any safety concerns
- Manage design information flow, tracking RFIs early to prevent programme impact, and attend client/design team meetings
- Manage the early identification and notification of potential variations, working with the commercial team
- Manage resident and stakeholder communications sensitively, minimising noise, dust and access disruption
What We're Looking For
Essential:
- Proven experience as a Site Manager or Senior Site Manager on facade, cladding or remediation projects, with direct responsibility for site delivery
- Demonstrable experience managing works on occupied residential buildings
- Strong technical knowledge of facade systems - remediation, re-cladding or overcladding experience strongly preferred over new-build cladding
- Solid understanding of CDM Regulations, RAMS and fire safety compliance in residential settings
- Strong programme awareness - able to read, own and interrogate a programme and identify float and risk without being prompted
- Ability to read and interrogate technical drawings and specifications
- Good communication skills, able to manage client, consultant and resident interactions professionally
- SMSTS, CSCS (black card or equivalent), and a valid First Aid certificate
- Full UK driving licence
