Site Supervisor / Assistant Site Manager

We are looking for a motivated and hands-on individual to join the team on a large-scale construction project in Plymouth as a Site Supervisor / Assistant Site Manager.

This is a great opportunity for someone who has built their experience within the construction trades, either through an apprenticeship or working as a skilled operative, and is now looking to develop their career into site supervision.

You don''t necessarily need to have held a formal Site Supervisor position before. We''re interested in someone who understands how a construction site operates, takes pride in high standards and is keen to learn and develop within a supervisory role.

The Role Working alongside the wider site management team, you will help oversee day-to-day site activities, ensuring works are delivered safely, efficiently and to the required quality standards.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Supporting the coordination and supervision of subcontractors and site operatives.
• Monitoring daily site activities and ensuring works are progressing in line with programme.
• Promoting a positive health and safety culture across site.
• Carrying out regular site inspections and monitoring standards of workmanship.
• Helping ensure the site is organised, clean and maintained to a high standard.
• Supporting the site management team with daily planning, coordination and problem-solving.
• Communicating effectively with subcontractors, trades and the wider project team.
• Identifying potential issues and escalating them where appropriate.

About You We''re particularly interested in speaking to people who have a practical construction background and are ready to take the next step in their career.
You might be:

• A qualified tradesperson looking to move away from the tools and into site supervision.
• Someone who has completed an apprenticeship and gained valuable on-site experience.
• A skilled operative who has developed a good understanding of construction site processes and wants more responsibility.
• Someone who has started to take on informal leadership or supervisory responsibilities and wants to develop this further.

You''ll ideally have:

• Previous experience working on a live construction site.
• A good understanding of construction processes, trades and sequencing.
• A strong awareness of health and safety.
• Good communication and organisational skills.
• A proactive attitude and the confidence to engage with different trades and subcontractors.
• A genuine interest in developing a career in construction site management.

An SSSTS or SMSTS qualification would be advantageous, but we would also welcome applications from those looking to gain these qualifications as part of their development.

What''s on Offer?

• The opportunity to step into a Site Supervisor position on a major construction project.
• Support and development from an experienced site management team.
• The opportunity to build your supervisory experience and progress your construction career.
• The chance to be part of a busy, challenging and rewarding project environment.
• A competitive salary and benefits package, dependent on experience.

If you''re from a trades or apprenticeship background, have solid site experience and are ready to take the next step into site supervision, we''d love to hear from you.
