Site Manager – £50M Landmark Project
📍 Cardiff | 💷 £Competitive + Package | 🏗️ Main Contractor | Major Build from Groundworks to Handover
We're looking for an experienced Site Manager to join the delivery team of a flagship £50 million project in Cardiff. This is a rare opportunity to be part of a high-profile scheme from groundworks to handover, working with a top-tier contractor.
🚧 The Opportunity:
You’ll play a pivotal role in leading a fast-paced, multi-faceted construction site, overseeing all stages of the build – with a strong emphasis on civils, groundworks, steel frame, and pre-cast elements.

Local or commutable candidates preferred – Cardiff-based or within a sensible travel distance
*
A proven Site Manager with full lifecycle experience of major projects
*
Bias toward civils, groundworks, and steel/pre-cast frame construction is advantageous
*
A true team leader who communicates confidently at all levels
*
Strong in record keeping, especially H&S, QA, daily diaries and compliance logs
*
Proficient in developing and monitoring short-term programmes
*
Comfortable in a high-paced site environment, with strong time management discipline
*
Willingness to lead from the front – this is a site-based leadership role, not one from behind a desk
🎓 Essential Qualifications:
*
SMSTS – Required
*
SEATS – Required
*
First Aid at Work – Required
*
Black CSCS Card (or equivalent) – Required
*
NVQ Level 6 – Preferable
