Want to take charge of a £300k residential refurbishment project while still staying hands‑on on the tools?
We're looking for a capable Working Foreman who can lead from the front, keep standards high, and drive a quality refurbishment project forward.

What You'll Be Doing
- Managing and coordinating site operations on a busy refurbishment project
- Leading and supervising up to 6 tradesmen at peak periods
- Working on the tools when required
- Reading and interpreting drawings to ensure works are delivered correctly
- Providing clear direction and maintaining productivity on site
- Monitoring quality, programme and site standards
- Ensuring work is completed safely and to specification
What We're Looking For
- Previous experience as a Working Foreman on refurbishment or residential projects
- Strong drawing interpretation skills
- Confidence managing small teams of trades and subcontractors
- Hands‑on approach with the ability to lead by example
- SSSTS (highly desirable)
- Passivhaus and air pressure testing experience (preferred)
- Strong communication and organisational skills
What's on Offer?
- £170-£200 per day depending on experience
- Shorter working day: 07:30-15:00
- On‑site parking available
- Immediate start on a well‑funded residential project
- Opportunity to make a real impact on a project that is growing in value and scope
