Site Manager - Ring Main Installation, Peel Ports, Merseyside
Location: Peel Ports, Merseyside
Contract Type: Contract - Full-time 10 hours per day
Salary/Rate: £500.00 per day.
Duration: 10 days - Wednesday 9th September - Tuesday 22nd September
About The Role
We are seeking an experienced Site Manager to oversee the installation of a new ring main at Peel Ports, Merseyside. This is a live, operational container port and a designated high-hazard environment, so the successful candidate must bring a rigorous, safety-first approach alongside strong technical construction management skills.
The works comprise both civil engineering (excavation and concreting) and extensive mechanical and electrical installation (heavy cabling and instrumentation), so the ideal candidate will be comfortable managing multi-disciplinary teams and subcontractors across several trades.
Key Responsibilities
- Day-to-day management of site operations, ensuring works are delivered safely, on programme, and to specification
- Overseeing civil engineering activities including excavation, trenching, and concreting
- Managing M&E installation works, including heavy cabling and instrumentation
- Coordinating multiple subcontractors and trades, ensuring effective sequencing of civils and M&E packages
- Enforcing strict adherence to site-specific health & safety rules given the port's high-hazard status
- Liaising with the port authority/client representatives on access, permits, and operational constraints
- Conducting site inductions, toolbox talks, and regular safety briefings
- Managing RAMS (Risk Assessments & Method Statements) and ensuring compliance on site
- Monitoring quality control and ensuring works meet relevant industry standards
- Producing progress reports and liaising with the project/contracts manager
- Managing site logistics within an active, operational port environment
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.
