At Shanly Homes
, we don’t just build houses. We create distinctive, high-specification homes designed for modern living.

As a privately owned, multi award-winning regional house builder, we take pride in developing bespoke communities in some of the most sought-after locations across the South East.

We are now looking for an experienced Site Manager to take the lead on our thoughtfully designed development in White Waltham.

This is a great opportunity to take ownership of a site and work within a collaborative, solutions-focused team that values quality, attention to detail and open communication across the business.

De Havilland Place is a residential development comprising 79 units, delivered across three phases. Phase 1, consisting of 29 units, is currently under construction and scheduled for completion in summer 2026. Phases 2 and 3 will follow on once Phase 1 is complete.

• Team leadership: provide clear direction to the site team, ensure consistent performance and foster a positive, professional working environment
