The Role
The role sits on one of our major works contracts in Aylesbury, running the site team day to day across landscaping management, tree planting and maintenance. It is a hands-on job. You will be planning the day, setting the standard, then working alongside the team to hit it.
About the Role
You will lead and help deliver works on site, including landscaping management, tree planting, seeding and maintenance. You will liaise with the Senior Site Manager and Project Manager to own the day-to-day management of the site team: making sure the work stays on plan, everyone on the ground stays safe, the plant is kept in good order, and the finished work is up to standard.
You will be on the tools as well as running the job, with support from other site managers, supervisors and landscapers. Some of the time you will be overseeing tractor and excavator operators, and there will be times when we expect you to operate the machines yourself, so a current CPCS A33 or excavator ticket is essential.
The Work on the Ground
- Site maintenance including vegetation clearance, strimming, mowing, grass cutting and herbicide application, in line with project requirements and environmental standards.
- Project-specific works including ground preparation, tree planting, wildflower meadow and grassland seeding, and creating features such as ponds and wetlands.
- Tractor and towed attachment operation under your CPCS A33 or excavator, alongside the wider site works.
- Plant, tools, materials and labour: what is on site, what condition it is in and where it is best used.
- Deliveries received and signed off, checked for accuracy and quality.
