Clayton-le-MoorsOn-site3w ago

About the role

We are looking for an experienced Site Manager / Build Manager to join our fast-growing modular construction company specialising in high-end holiday lodges and luxury modular buildings.

This is not a traditional factory production role. We are looking for someone with real construction knowledge who understands how buildings go together, can manage multiple trades, drive programmes forward, solve problems quickly, and deliver projects to strict deadlines without compromising quality.

You will take ownership of live builds from start to finish, ensuring every build leaves the factory to a high standard and on schedule.

This role would suit someone from a housebuilding, fit-out, joinery, modular construction, or fast-paced construction management background.

What We’re Looking For:

We are looking for someone who takes ownership, leads from the front, and thrives under pressure.

The right candidate will understand that every day matters in construction. They will be proactive, organised, solutions-driven, and capable of keeping builds moving while maintaining exceptional quality standards.

This is a hands-on management role for someone who genuinely understands construction and knows how to deliver completed projects on time.

To apply, please send your CV along with a short introduction about your experience.

* Ensure materials, labour, and work areas are organised efficiently

* Communicate effectively with directors, supervisors, subcontractors, and workshop teams

* Continuously improve systems, workflows, and build efficiency

* Strong understanding of construction methods and sequencing

* Experience managing multiple trades including:

* Joiners

* Ability to work under pressure in a fast-paced environment

* Strong organisational and leadership skills

* Excellent problem-solving ability and decision making

* High attention to detail and pride in quality workmanship
