If you're passionate about exceptional craftsmanship, take pride in delivering projects to the very highest standards, and want to be part of a business where quality genuinely comes before quantity, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.

\n

We're supporting a respected specialist contractor with an outstanding reputation for delivering luxury homes, complex refurbishments and bespoke private residential projects across Surrey and the surrounding counties.

  • \n
  • Coordinating subcontractors, specialist trades and suppliers.

  • Driving programme, quality and health & safety performance.
  • \n
  • Maintaining exceptional standards of workmanship and finish throughout every stage of the build.
  • \n
  • Building strong relationships with clients, consultants and the wider project team.
  • \n
  • Identifying and resolving issues proactively to keep projects moving forward.
  • \n

About You

\n

You'll already have experience delivering high-end residential projects for a principal contractor and understand what it takes to exceed expectations on bespoke developments.

\n
    \n
  • Proven experience as a Site Manager within high-end residential construction.
  • \n
  • Experience delivering bespoke new builds and luxury refurbishments.
  • \n
  • SMSTS, CSCS and First Aid qualifications.

\n

What's on Offer?

\n
    \n
  • Competitive salary and performance bonus.
  • \n
  • The opportunity to lead a flagship £10m luxury residential project.
  • \n
  • A pipeline of prestigious bespoke developments.
  • \n
  • A supportive, approachable leadership team that trusts you to do your job.
