Within the Construction environment, think about buying materials, managing big projects, ensuring health and safety and customer service. At any given time, you’ll find us working on some circa 400 developments in both towns and rural areas across the UK, and every one poses unique challenges. Some are from scratch on brownfield sites; others see us adapting existing buildings, like old factories or disused hospitals.
We need people who can bring us fresh ideas and imagination on one hand, and the commercial ability to manage people, budgets and costs on the other. It is testament to the professionalism of our construction teams that for an unprecedented thirteenth year, Site Managers have won more NHBC Pride in the Job Awards than any other housebuilder.
Reporting to the Site Manager, you will be involved and will assist in the management of site, supporting and actively seeking to learn about site management and construction. All activities must support the delivery of targets in regard to health and safety, to build programme quality, customer care, and cost.
You will be expected to:
- Ensuring compliance on site at all times to the company health and safety standards and processes, NHBC standards, building regulations, and overall quality standards
- Reporting any activities or actions to the Site Manager that could affect health and safety, quality, customer care, or cost
- Liaising with other internal departments, externals suppliers and partners to ensure the build programme is achieved
- Helping in the monitoring of material levels on site to ensure the minimum amount of stock, but enough to ensure the site programme is met and all labour is efficiently employed
- Ensuring that all plots are built to the highest standard of quality, and contribute to a high standard of overall presentation on site, at a minimum
- To carry out some reporting of defects on IFix
- Showing a good behavioural example in all aspects of health and safety, organisation, conduct, quality of work, and professionalism.
To be successful in the role, we are looking for:
- Confident communicator with a positive attitude
- Show signs of leadership and developing assertive skills
- Ability to prioritise tasks, demonstrating a good problem-solving ability
- Appetite for learning and gaining experiences in all areas of site management and customer care
