Assistant Site Manager

Every Assistant Site Manager comes from one of two places. Route 1: Degree, tidy CV, can build a programme that actually makes sense. Knows Excel better than most people know their own postcode. Runs inductions, H&S, paperwork - keeps the job compliant (and everyone honest). Route 2: Started on site, maybe as a logistics manager - probably carrying something heavy at some point. Knows who’s turning up late, what’s going wrong, and why. Can run an induction off the top of their head - might just need a hand finding the spreadsheet. This role will take either. It’s with a prime residential specialist that’s been around 30+ years - quietly getting on with it while others came and went (including recessions, the credit crunch, and everything else thrown at the industry). Small team. Long-serving people. Most of the senior site managers started on the tools and never left. They’re not hiring because of churn. They’re thinking about the next generation.
