About the Role

Are you an experienced Site Manager with a background in retrofit, construction or energy efficiency projects? Do you have the leadership skills and technical knowledge to deliver high-quality projects safely, efficiently and to programme?

We are looking for an experienced Site Manager to oversee the delivery of retrofit and energy improvement works across multiple sites, ensuring projects meet the highest standards of quality, health and safety, compliance and customer satisfaction.

Experience of the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund (SHDF) or similar government-funded retrofit programmes would be highly advantageous.

The organisation is helping households across the UK reduce energy costs, improve home comfort and lower carbon emissions through energy-efficient heating, insulation and renewable energy solutions.

Reporting to the Operational Management Team, you will take responsibility for the day-to-day management of site activities, coordinating subcontractors, labour, materials and resources to ensure successful project delivery.

Key Responsibilities

• Oversee day-to-day site operations, ensuring works are delivered safely, efficiently and in accordance with project specifications.
• Manage and supervise subcontractors, tradespeople and site teams.
• Ensure full compliance with health and safety legislation, company policies and site-specific procedures.
• Coordinate labour, materials, equipment and site logistics to maintain project progress.
• Carry out regular site inspections, quality checks and audits.
• Monitor programme delivery, identify potential delays and implement corrective actions.
• Work closely with residents, customer liaison teams and other key stakeholders.
• Manage site-related issues, operational challenges and programme risks.
• Attend project meetings and contribute to delivery planning and progress reviews.
• Maintain accurate site records, daily reports and compliance documentation.
• Ensure a high standard of workmanship and customer service throughout project delivery.

Essential Skills, Experience and Qualifications

• Proven experience in a Site Manager position within construction, retrofit or energy efficiency projects.
• Strong understanding of health and safety legislation and site compliance requirements.
• Experience coordinating multiple trades, subcontractors and site teams.
• Strong leadership, organisational and communication skills.
• Ability to manage competing priorities and deliver projects to programme.
• SMSTS certification.
• CSCS Black Manager Card.
• First Aid at Work certification.
• Full, valid UK driving licence.

Desirable Experience and Qualifications

• Experience managing social housing refurbishment or retrofit projects.
• Experience delivering works within occupied residential properties.
• Knowledge of SHDF, LAD, HUG, ECO or Warm Homes programmes.
• Experience working on listed buildings, heritage properties or within conservation areas.
• Understanding of traditional construction methods and the challenges associated with improving the energy efficiency of older properties.
• Temporary Works Awareness.
• Scaffold Inspection qualification.
• Face Fit Testing qualification.

Please note: Heritage, conservation and listed building experience would be a significant advantage but is not essential for this position.

The Ideal Candidate

We are looking for a proactive, hands-on Site Manager who can demonstrate strong site leadership, excellent organisational skills and a commitment to delivering safe, compliant and high-quality projects.

You will be confident managing subcontractors and multiple workstreams, communicating with residents and stakeholders, and taking ownership of site performance.

Someone with experience of heritage, conservation or listed buildings would be an excellent addition to the team, particularly given the specialist considerations involved in delivering retrofit works to older properties.
