About You

You will be someone who is known for being reliable, disciplined, and trustworthy. You are comfortable being given responsibility and authority, and you take pride in running things properly.

You will ideally have:

* Proven experience at manager or senior level within construction or a related sector

* Strong organisational and leadership skills

* Experience managing budgets and operational responsibility

* The confidence to make decisions and be accountable for outcomes

* The ability to communicate clearly and professionally with senior stakeholders

* A calm, structured approach to problem-solving

What’s on Offer
