About Maconda
Maconda Solutions are one of the most innovative companies active in the UK construction sector.
We’ve pioneered new approaches to circular economy and digital Material Passports to support the built environment’s transition to a low-carbon future. Our clients are Tier-1 contractors, developers, major corporate tenants and the public sector; for whom we provide Material Passports and other digital tools alongside bespoke consultancy services. We also work within the critical minerals and mining sector from our office in Perth, Australia.
As a recent and fast-moving startup, we deliver a tech-enabled service model while operating our flagship industry initiative, ROMULUS — a major public-private initiative to scale circular economy practice across London's built environment.
We are committed to circular economy in the built environment but what really sets us apart is our track record. Our leadership team are all industry insiders with decades of collective experience working on complex sites - we build solutions that the industry can actually use.
Role Summary
We’re looking for applicants who understand site operations and project delivery.
You should have 1-3 years of direct operational experience on Tier-1 sites as operatives or junior site supervisors. Those with sub-contractor, construction engineer and main contractor backgrounds will be strongly considered.
This is an entry level role for Maconda and you will be working under supervision. We have a highly experienced senior team so you’ll have an excellent opportunity for further career development and mentorship.
The role is perfect for those who are looking to make a career move from site operations & delivery into a consulting role focused on the cutting-edge fields of circular economy and digital construction. You’ll use your experience to connect the practical & technical side of construction with digital data collection, supply chain networks and site coordination. There is also the opportunity for overseas travel with our Australian office.
Salary starts at £35,000. There is also the opportunity to share in Maconda's growth through EMI share options.
