Site Manager (Retrofit & Decarbonisation)
Location: Leicester
Contract: Full-Time | Permanent
About the Role
Our client is a leading contractor delivering large-scale retrofit, decarbonisation and renewable energy projects across the UK. Working predominantly within the social housing sector, they specialise in improving the energy efficiency of residential properties through the installation of low-carbon technologies and sustainable building solutions.
Due to continued growth, they are seeking an experienced Site Manager to oversee retrofit and decarbonisation projects across Leicester. This is an excellent opportunity for a motivated construction professional with experience managing refurbishment, social housing or energy efficiency schemes.
The Role
As Site Manager, you will be responsible for the day-to-day management of site operations, ensuring projects are delivered safely, on time, within budget and to the highest quality standards.
Working alongside clients, subcontractors and operational teams, you will coordinate site activities, monitor progress and ensure compliance with all health, safety and quality standards throughout the project lifecycle.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
