Site Manager

We are supporting a leading construction business in the search for a Site Manager to aid the successful delivery of a major project in Edinburgh city centre.

This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of a collaborative, solutions-driven team on a prestigious city-centre scheme. The role will suit someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, with a strong focus on site logistics, coordination, and the integration of building services throughout the construction process.

As Site Manager, you will play a key role in managing day-to-day site operations, with particular emphasis on sequencing works, coordinating trades, and ensuring efficient site logistics on a tightly constrained site.

Responsibilities include:

• Managing and coordinating trades and subcontractors with a focus on programme sequencing and logistics
• Overseeing site logistics including access, material flow, and workface planning in a busy city-centre environment
• Working closely with the Project Manager and M&E teams to ensure smooth integration of building services with internal works
• Monitoring progress to ensure programme deadlines are achieved
• Ensuring all works are delivered safely, to a high standard, and in line with current regulations
• Conducting site inductions, toolbox talks, and health & safety inspections
• Maintaining accurate site records and reporting on progress

We are keen to speak with candidates who have previous experience in a management or supervisory role within a main contracting environment, ideally on complex or logistically challenging projects. A strong understanding of site logistics is essential, alongside a working knowledge of building services and how they interface with internal packages.

You should be confident coordinating multiple trades, proactively resolving site challenges, and driving programme and quality outcomes.

A valid CSCS card and SMSTS or SSSTS certification are required.
