Site Manager

A leading civil engineering and groundworks contractor is seeking an experienced Site Manager to take charge of site operations across projects in the East of Scotland.

With a strong pipeline of live and upcoming work, this is an excellent opportunity to join a progressive business that’s continuing to expand its regional presence.

You’ll be responsible for the day-to-day management of construction activity on site, ensuring delivery to the highest standards of safety, quality, and programme. Working closely with the Contracts Manager and Project Team, you’ll play a key role in coordinating resources, maintaining clear communication, and driving works to successful completion.

Key responsibilities include:

• Manage site operations from initial set-up through to handover.
• Supervise labour, plant, and subcontractors to ensure safe and efficient delivery.
• Monitor progress against programme and report to project management teams.
• Ensure compliance with company safety, quality, and environmental standards.
• Support planning and sequencing of works, including short-term lookaheads.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with clients, consultants, and local stakeholders.

To be considered, you’ll need a proven track record as a Site Manager or Senior Engineer within civil engineering, infrastructure, or groundworks projects. You should be technically capable, commercially aware, and able to lead site teams with professionalism and a commitment to maintaining high standards.

This is a role within a stable, well-respected contractor that values teamwork, progression, and delivery excellence. You’ll enjoy the autonomy to run your site, the backing of experienced leadership, and clear opportunities to grow within the business.

If you’re ready for a fresh challenge with a company that’s going places, I’d like to hear from you.

Apply in confidence or contact me for a discreet discussion.
