The successful candidate will oversee day-to-day site operations, subcontractors, resident decanting coordination, sprinkler installations, FRA remedials and associated redecoration works. While this is a fire-safety upgrade project, in-depth technical knowledge of sprinklers or fire stopping is not essential we are looking for a strong, IT-competent Site Manager with experience delivering projects in live care or residential environments.

• Complete QA reports and delap photographs
• Monitor quality of works including compartmentation and fire-stopping elements
• Liaise with care home management to minimise disruption to residents

• Proven experience managing works in live/occupied environments (care homes, social housing, retirement living preferred)
• SMSTS (Site Manager) or SSSTS (Assistant Site Manager)
• CSCS Card
• First Aid Certification
• Strong organisational and IT skills
• Experience delivering FRA or fire safety upgrade projects (desirable)
• Professional, patient and considerate approach when working around vulnerable residents

This role requires a proactive, organised Site Manager who can maintain high health & safety standards while delivering critical fire safety works within a sensitive environment. A calm and respectful manner is essential due to the nature of the setting.

Interviews will be conducted via Teams, with a view to appointing quickly.
