Overview
Churchfarm Maintenance is a growing construction and maintenance company delivering high-quality refurbishment and maintenance works across the South West. We pride ourselves on reliability, quality workmanship and strong client relationships.
Our passive fire protection work includes firestopping, fire door installation and maintenance, and compartmentation works.
We are looking for a practical and organised Site Manager to work with our passive fire protection team. Most of your time will be spent on site, with some time in our Bristol office each week. You do not need formal passive fire qualifications to apply. Site management experience and a trade background are more important to us, and carpentry or joinery experience would be ideal. We can provide role-specific training to the right person.

- Provide clear feedback and progress reports to clients and the internal team.
