The Opportunity

We are recruiting a Small Works Manager on behalf of a successful, growing national contractor operating within the commercial interiors sector.

This is a fast-paced, hands-on role where you will take ownership of small works from initial enquiry and quotation through to scheduling, delivery and invoicing.

Working closely with customers, installers, subcontractors, suppliers and internal project teams, you will ensure jobs are properly planned, efficiently delivered and completed to the required standard.

The role is varied and demanding, with reactive work, changing priorities and occasional overnight, early-morning and weekend projects. In return, you will have the opportunity to make a real impact, improve processes and progress into wider operational management.

Key Responsibilities

Manage small works enquiries from initial instruction through to completion.
Prepare quotations, set up jobs on the CRM and maintain accurate records.
Schedule installers and subcontractors, ensuring materials, access and resources are in place.
Coordinate reactive, short-notice and out-of-hours work.
Act as the main office contact for customers, providing updates and resolving issues.
Liaise with project teams, suppliers, installers and subcontractors to keep work on track.
Order materials and monitor costs, ensuring deliveries arrive on time.
Record variations, obtain approvals and raise invoices for completed work.
Chase timesheets, photographs, completion paperwork and outstanding actions.
Monitor job progress, quality, customer feedback and remedial works.
Produce reports and ensure health, safety and compliance procedures are followed.
Identify improvements to processes, systems and operational efficiency.

Excellent organisational skills and attention to detail.
Ability to manage changing priorities and work under pressure.
Strong communication and customer service skills.
Good IT skills and confidence using CRM systems.
Numerical ability, including pricing, ordering and invoicing.
A practical, solutions-focused approach with the ability to take ownership.

Desirable:

Experience in flooring, construction, facilities management or a related industry.
Background in operations, scheduling, coordination or contract administration.
Experience managing subcontractors or field-based teams.
Experience with quotations, procurement or invoicing.

Relevant industry experience is beneficial but not essential. Candidates with strong coordination or operational experience and the right attitude are encouraged to apply.
