£60K - £65K All-In
Initial Sites: Bromley & Putney | Projects Across London

We're working with a specialist civils contractor to recruit an experienced Site Manager to oversee a series of challenging refurbishment and repair projects within the Thames Water framework.

Projects range in value up to £1m and involve complex civils works such as underground reservoir repairs, water tank refurbishments, and structural reinstatement.

This role will suit a self-sufficient Site Manager capable of managing early-stage works such as pre-condition surveys, site setups, and service tracing, right through to delivery and handover.

Site Manager Responsibilities:

• Leading multiple water infrastructure refurbishment projects across London

• Overseeing early-stage activities: site surveys, pre-condition reports, service isolation, temporary works

• Managing health & safety, scaffold setups, site compliance, and QA

• Working through and submitting complex paperwork for Thames Water approval

• Coordinating subcontractors, monitoring progress, and ensuring works are delivered on time and within budget

• Regular client liaison and collaboration with framework partners

Ideal Background:

• Solid experience in civils, structural refurbishments, or utilities

• Previous work within water frameworks (Runway 0 or 1) or similar regulated environments

• Strong with pre-construction planning, documentation, and framework compliance

• Comfortable running fast-paced, small-to-mid-value projects (£250K-£1M)

• Desirable certifications:

  • Thames Water Passport

  • EUSR Card

This is a permanent position with a busy pipeline of upcoming projects across London. You'll be part of a tight delivery team, expected to take full ownership of your sites and deliver to a high standard under tight programme requirements.
