Site Manager - #2135038

Location: UK - Nationwide Projects
Contract: Permanent, Full-Time
Salary: 50 to 60k DOE + Package
Sector: Commercial Fit-Out / Refurbishment / Interiors

KPI Recruiting is working with an established and growing commercial fit-out specialist to recruit an experienced Site Manager to join its project delivery team.

Our client delivers high-quality interior fit-out and refurbishment projects across the UK, working with recognised brands and businesses across retail, hospitality, leisure, office/commercial and specialist environments.

This is an excellent opportunity for a Site Manager who comes from a fit-out, refurbishment or interiors background and is comfortable taking ownership of fast-paced projects from site mobilisation through to final handover.

As Site Manager, you will take day-to-day responsibility for the successful delivery of projects on site, managing subcontractors, trades, programme, quality and health & safety.

You will act as the key operational presence on site, working closely with Project Managers, Contracts Managers, clients and the wider delivery team to ensure projects are completed safely, on programme and to an exceptional standard.

Typical responsibilities will include:

• Managing commercial fit-out and refurbishment projects from mobilisation through to completion and handover
• Coordinating subcontractors, trades, suppliers and deliveries
• Driving the programme and ensuring key project milestones are achieved
• Managing short-term programmes and sequencing works effectively
• Maintaining high standards of workmanship, finishes and attention to detail
• Ensuring full compliance with site health & safety requirements
• Conducting site inductions, toolbox talks and daily site coordination
• Managing snagging and ensuring works are completed to specification
• Liaising professionally with clients, consultants, designers and project stakeholders
• Maintaining accurate site records, progress reports and project documentation
• Identifying potential programme or delivery issues and resolving them proactively
• Supporting successful practical completion and client handover

We are particularly interested in Site Managers with a background in commercial interiors, fit-out or refurbishment.

You could have experience delivering projects within:

• Retail and branded environments
• Restaurants and hospitality
• Leisure
• Offices and commercial interiors
• High-spec refurbishment
• Fast-track fit-out projects

You will need to be confident managing multiple trades and subcontractors while maintaining control of programme, H&S, quality and client expectations.

• Proven experience as a Site Manager within fit-out, refurbishment or commercial construction
• Strong subcontractor and trade management experience
• Excellent understanding of site health & safety
• Ability to work to demanding project programmes and deadlines
• Strong eye for detail and quality of finish
• Excellent communication and client-facing skills
• SMSTS
• CSCS Manager Card
• Full UK driving licence
• Flexibility to travel to projects as required

First Aid at Work would also be highly advantageous.

This isn't a role focused on repetitive new-build developments.

You'll be joining a specialist contractor delivering varied, design-led commercial projects, where the quality of the finished environment really matters.

The business has a strong pipeline of work and offers the opportunity to work on projects for established brands and organisations across a range of commercial sectors.

The package will include a competitive basic salary and benefits, dependent upon experience, alongside the opportunity to build a long-term career with a growing fit-out contractor.

If you're an experienced Fit-Out Site Manager looking for your next permanent opportunity, we'd like to hear from you.
