Site Agent

Job Description:

Colas Ltd are a UK subsidiary of the global Colas Group, which operates in over 50 countries worldwide and employs over 55,000 people including over 1500 in the UK across multiple sites. We are specialists in highways construction and have been involved in large scale UK and international construction projects within the highways, airfields and marine sectors as well as offering highways maintenance services and manufacturing our own innovative surfacing products. We hold a ‘Gold Investor in People’ award for continuously developing and rewarding our employees, offering excellent career potential.

Allied Infrastructure, part of the Colas Group, works on 95% of the UK’s commercial, private, and military airfields, delivering specialist services in airfield pavement maintenance and small civil engineering projects.

You’ll have the chance to take on increasing responsibility and achieve promotion — not just within Allied Infrastructure, but across the wider Colas Group.

We are looking for someone with outstanding organisational, planning, and time management skills, who never compromises on standards or quality. You should bring strong leadership and negotiation abilities, with experience in civils, highways, or a similar environment.
