Description:
My Client seeking an experienced Working Site Manager to lead a high-specification £300k dental surgery fit-out in Cheshire. This is a hands-on role suited to a site manager who is comfortable rolling up their sleeves and getting stuck into installation works alongside managing the day-to-day running of the site.
You'll be responsible for driving the programme forward, coordinating trades, maintaining quality and safety standards, and directly contributing to installation tasks when required — this is not a purely supervisory position.
Key Responsibilities
* Manage the site from initial strip-out through to practical completion, ensuring the project is delivered on time and to budget
* Get hands-on with installation works, including first and second fix, joinery, and general fit-out tasks as needed
* Coordinate and supervise subcontractors and trades on site
* Ensure full compliance with health & safety regulations (CDM 2015), including toolbox talks, RAMS, and site inductions
* Maintain quality control in line with client and design specifications, particularly around clinical/dental-specific fit-out requirements
* Liaise with the client, design team, and project manager on progress, variations, and any site issues
* Manage site programme, deliveries, and logistics
* Keep accurate site records, including daily diaries, progress photos, and snagging lists
* Ensure the site remains clean, organised, and compliant throughout the works
Requirements
* Proven experience as a Site Manager on commercial fit-out projects, ideally within healthcare, dental, or medical environments
* Strong hands-on trade background (carpentry, joinery, general building) with a willingness to actively support installation works
* SMSTS or SSSTS certification (essential)
* CSCS Card (Black/Gold preferred)
* First Aid at Work certificate
* Sound knowledge of CDM Regulations 2015
* Excellent communication and organisational skills
* Full UK driving licence
* Experience managing projects of a similar value (£250k–£350k) desirable
