As a leader in residential decarbonisation, energy efficiency, and whole-house retrofit, we currently manage and deliver over £100m+ large‑scale retrofit schemes, blending funding across mixed-tenures to maximise positive impact across communities.

Our work directly improves the living conditions, health, comfort and wellbeing of thousands of households each year — helping to reduce fuel poverty and address four of today's greatest challenges: the cost of living, energy security, climate change, and public health.

We are now recruiting for a Site Manager to assume responsibility for the supervision and coordination of daily on‑site activities.

• Manage health & safety on site, including reviewing RAMS, carrying out safety inspections, and delivering weekly toolbox talks.
• Monitor progress against the master programme, issuing weekly progress reports and liaising with the reporting Manager.
• Maintain strong control over materials procurement, deliveries, workmanship quality and compliance with designs, regulations and company standards.
• Work closely with surveyors on cost control, waste management, variations and instructions.
• Build and maintain positive relationships with clients, design teams, neighbours and other stakeholders, including chairing weekly review meetings.
• Keep accurate project records to ensure full traceability.
• Support team development through mentoring and by undertaking relevant training.
• Travel within the region as required.

Qualifications

• SMSTS Qualification.
• CSCS Card.
• First Aid Qualification.
• 2 years+ construction experience, managing projects, programmes and H&S requirements.
• A full UK driving licence.
• Experience with solar PV programmes.
• Proficiency in IT (Excel / Word / Outlook).

• Knowledge of current PAS2030 & 2035 requirements.
• Energy efficiency and social housing experience.
• Experience of retrofit process from assignments, designs and lodgements.

We are proud to be an equal opportunities employer. We believe in hiring the right person for the job and fostering a workplace where everyone is treated fairly and with respect, regardless of gender, age, race, family status, sexual orientation, disability or religious belief.
