£60,000 to £70,000 + benefits | Permanent or day rate considered

Premises Recruitment is working with a management contractor on the search for an experienced Site Manager to lead a Grade II listed prime residential refurbishment and extension in Islington. The project starts in November and offers the chance to take full ownership of a technically varied job from the outset.

The Company

Our client is a relatively new and exciting management contractor. They work on an open book basis and deliver both super prime residential and commercial projects. This appointment is on the prime residential side of the business.

The Project

The project is a full refurbishment and extension of a Grade II listed house in Islington, being delivered under a PCSA. The value is around -1.5m, expected to rise to -2m as the scope develops. It starts in November, and the Site Manager will be the senior presence on site for the job.

The works include:

• Demolition of the existing side extension
• Piling along the party wall and for the extension on both sides
• Re-roofing
• A new conservatory
• Full strip out and refurbishment of the house
• New M&E throughout

The client has further projects in the pipeline, and the role could be offered on a permanent basis.

The Role

• Lead the project on site, managing the works from strip out and groundworks through to completion
• Manage the sequence of demolition, piling, structural alterations and fit out
• Coordinate subcontractors and suppliers and keep the programme moving
• Oversee quality on a listed building, working carefully around the existing fabric
• Manage the party wall and neighbour interface during the enabling and piling works
• Coordinate the installation of the new M&E systems with the wider design and delivery team
• Work with the client's team under the open book arrangement

The Individual

Essential:

• Proven experience as a Site Manager on high end residential refurbishment
• Experience of managing extensions, structural alterations or similar complex works
• Confident running a project on site and managing subcontractors

Desirable:

• Previous experience of Grade II listed buildings
• Experience of piling or groundworks alongside party walls
• Experience of management contracting or open book projects

Salary & Package

A salary of £60,000 to £70,000 plus benefits is on offer. Day rate engagement can also be considered for the right candidate.

The Opportunity

This is a chance to run a complex Grade II listed project from the start, with a technical scope that goes well beyond a standard refurbishment. The client is a growing business with more work coming through, so there is potential for a longer term position beyond this project.
