Drift Services Group is looking for a Site Supervisor with the ambition to progress into a Site Manager role. We’re not necessarily looking for someone who already has every box ticked for Site Management. We’re looking for someone who wants to get there. Someone practical, switched on and comfortable on a drilling site. Someone who understands how projects work, isn't afraid to get hands-on when needed, and is ready to start taking more responsibility for people, programmes, clients and delivery. We’ll provide the experience, exposure and training you need to make that progression with us.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
Working across Drift's drilling, groundwater and geothermal projects, you'll support the safe and effective day-to-day management of our sites. You'll work closely with our Operations and Project teams and gradually take on greater responsibility as your experience develops, including:
- Supervising site activities and personnel
- Supporting project planning and delivery
- Coordinating subcontractors, suppliers and site logistics
- Maintaining high standards of H&S and site compliance
- Supporting RAMS, briefings and site documentation
- Liaising with clients and other contractors
- Monitoring progress against the programme
- Helping resolve the inevitable challenges that arise on live construction projects
- Keeping our sites organised, professional and properly managed
- Developing the skills required to ultimately take ownership of projects as a Site Manager
And yes - you need to be happy to get your hands dirty. We're a growing specialist contractor, not a business where Site Management happens entirely from behind a laptop.
WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR
You’ll need:
- SSSTS
- CSCS card
- Full UK driving licence
- Construction/site experience
- A good understanding of construction activities and the fundamentals of project management
- Willingness to work away from home
- Confidence communicating with site teams and clients
- A practical, problem-solving attitude
- A genuine desire to learn, develop and progress
You don't need to arrive as the finished article. In fact, this role is specifically aimed at someone who has built solid site experience and is thinking: “I'm capable of more. I just need the opportunity.”
WHAT YOU'LL GET
Alongside a salary commensurate with your experience, you'll receive:
- Company vehicle
- Private healthcare
- Annual bonus
- Good-quality accommodation when working away
- Training and professional development
- Exposure to technically interesting projects across the UK
- A genuine progression route from Site Supervisor to Site Manager
Most importantly, you'll be joining a growing business where good people get noticed and where there is room to build a career as we grow.
