• Overall management of site operations

• Managing the Engineer, Supervisor, direct labour and specialist subcontractors

• Driving the construction programme and short-term look-aheads

• Working closely with Commercial and Planning teams

• Managing client, designer and stakeholder interfaces

• Coordinating commissioning and project close-out

You'll Need

• Water / wastewater treatment experience highly advantageous

• Experience taking ownership of projects in the £1m–£5m range
