Harbron Recruit is recruiting on behalf of a respected house builder for an experienced Assistant Site Manager to join a prestigious residential development in Newquay.
This opportunity is ideal for someone with a minimum of 7-10 years' experience within the residential house-building sector. Our client is looking for an individual who understands that building homes is about far more than simply completing plots; it's about delivering high-quality homes, maintaining exceptional workmanship throughout every stage of the build, and ensuring every property is completed to the highest standard before handover.
Although this role is initially offered on a temporary basis, there is a genuine opportunity for a permanent position with the client for the right candidate.
Working closely with the Site Manager, you will assist in the day-to-day running of a busy residential development, ensuring works are completed safely, efficiently, on programme, and to the highest quality standards.
- Assist in the day-to-day management of a live residential housing development.
- Support the Site Manager in delivering high-quality new-build homes.
- Supervise subcontractors and ensure works are completed to specification.
- Monitor build quality throughout every stage of construction, identifying and resolving any issues before completion.
- Carry out plot inspections and quality assurance checks.
- Maintain accurate site records, inspections, and progress reports.
- Ensure excellent site presentation and housekeeping standards are maintained.
The successful candidate must have proven experience managing all aspects of Health & Safety associated with an Assistant Site Manager role, including:
- Conducting daily site inspections and safety checks.
- Reviewing Risk Assessments and Method Statements (RAMS) and ensuring they are followed.
- Monitoring subcontractor compliance with site rules and company procedures.
- Maintaining welfare facilities and ensuring high standards of housekeeping across the site.
Requirements:
- 7-10 years' experience within residential house building.
- Proven experience as an Assistant Site Manager or Site Supervisor working on quality housing developments.
- Excellent understanding of quality control, snagging, and finishing standards.
- Proven experience managing Health & Safety on live construction sites.
- Valid SMSTS or SSSTS qualification.
- Valid CSCS card.
- Ability to provide recent, checkable references demonstrating your experience on residential housing developments.
To be considered, you must submit an up-to-date CV clearly demonstrating your experience within residential house building. Your CV should evidence the quality housing developments you have worked on, your site management responsibilities, and your involvement in maintaining high standards of Health & Safety. You must also be able to provide recent, work-related references that support your experience and the quality of work undertaken.
