Overview
Bee Construction, trading as Site Managers, is recruiting on behalf of a client for additional Site Managers to work on a project in Lutterworth.
This is a live and fast-moving warehouse environment where the client is bringing stock and operations teams into certain areas of the building ahead of the agreed handover date. Construction activity is still ongoing, so the requirement is for extra Site Managers to help safely manage those operational areas within the wider CDM zone.
This is not a traditional build management role where you are driving the programme in the usual sense. It is more about controlling access, keeping people safe, escorting the client’s teams through designated operational zones, and making sure the interface between construction and operations is managed properly.
The role
The Site Managers brought in for this will each be responsible for a specific area of the warehouse operation while stock is being moved in and operations teams are active on site.
The work will involve a lot of moving around the warehouse on foot, communicating with client operations staff, maintaining boundaries between operational and construction areas, and making sure the site remains safe and controlled at all times.
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.
This is a proactive role rather than a desk-based one. The right person needs to be switched on, presentable, physically capable, and comfortable speaking with people throughout the day.
Key duties
- Manage a designated operational area within the live warehouse environment
- Escort client operations staff and other authorised personnel safely between areas of site
- Maintain safe separation between the client’s operational activity and ongoing construction works
- Make sure construction operatives do not enter restricted operational zones and vice versa
- Monitor access routes and keep people moving safely around site
- Act as a visible management presence within the assigned area
- Liaise with the client’s operations team in a professional and proactive way
- Communicate clearly with the wider site team and raise issues quickly if anything changes
- Support general health and safety compliance on site
- Ensure the working area remains organised, controlled and safe throughout the shift
- Assist with any permits, briefings or paperwork required from the site management side
- Be comfortable working in a hot warehouse environment and being on foot for most of the day

The person needs to be proactive, not passive
Attitude And Communication Are As Important As Qualifications
Someone too slow, too rigid or not comfortable around people will not suit it
This is short term cover / support, so people need to be flexible and ready to step in quickly
