Job Type: Full-time, Permanent
About the Company
Our client is an established groundworks and civil engineering contractor delivering a diverse range of infrastructure, external works and construction projects across the Midlands.
With expertise spanning groundworks, earthworks, drainage, roads, foundations, reinforced concrete and external works, the business is committed to delivering projects safely, efficiently and to the highest standards of quality.
Due to ongoing project requirements, the company is looking to appoint an experienced Contracts Manager to oversee multiple live projects, lead site teams and ensure operational, commercial and programme objectives are consistently achieved.
The Role
An excellent opportunity has arisen for an experienced Contracts Manager to take responsibility for the successful delivery of multiple groundworks and civil engineering projects across Staffordshire and the wider Midlands.
Reporting to the Managing Director, you will oversee projects from pre-start and initial handover through construction, completion and final close-out. You will provide operational leadership to Site Managers, Supervisors and Foremen, ensuring projects are properly planned, adequately resourced and delivered safely, on programme and within budget.
The successful candidate will combine strong technical knowledge of groundworks and civil engineering with excellent leadership, commercial awareness and client management skills.
