About Our Client

Our client is a well-established and reputable residential construction company specialising in new builds, renovations, and alterations. With a strong commitment to quality, integrity, and family-first values, they deliver outstanding results on every project.

Due to ongoing growth, they're now on the lookout for an experienced, hands-on Site Supervisor to take charge of day-to-day site operations — overseeing projects from start to finish and ensuring every build meets the highest standards.

The Role

As the Site Supervisor, you'll be the driving force on the ground — coordinating trades, managing materials, and keeping things running smoothly. You'll be responsible for site mobilisation, quality control, safety, and ensuring projects are delivered on time, on budget, and to an exceptional standard.

This is a hands-on, site-based role, ideal for someone who enjoys being in the thick of it — leading by example, problem-solving on the fly, and making sure each project runs like clockwork.

Key Responsibilities

Site Management

  • Plan and coordinate site mobilisation to ensure readiness
  • Supervise all site activities, subcontractors, and suppliers to meet project schedules
  • Conduct site inspections, manage compliance, and maintain quality standards
  • Manage defect lists and prepare for client handovers

Programming and Scheduling

  • Use construction management software to oversee workflows and reporting
  • Update schedules, monitor progress, and address on-site priorities
  • Coordinate purchase orders and liaise with admin support

Financial Control

  • Manage costs within project budgets and complete variation reports
  • Ensure materials, permits, and resources are appropriately managed

People and Team Management

  • Lead, motivate, and supervise subcontractors and internal teams
  • Conduct team meetings, performance reviews, and site-specific inductions
  • Promote a positive, safety-first culture

Compliance and Safety

  • Take ownership of site safety and environmental performance
  • Ensure all safety documentation and hazard registers are up to date
  • Conduct regular safety inspections and manage incident responses

Asset Maintenance

  • Monitor equipment registers, schedule maintenance, and manage asset reports

What You'll Bring

  • Proven experience as a Site Supervisor in residential construction
  • Strong leadership and communication skills with the ability to motivate teams
  • Trade background and practical, hands-on approach
  • Solid understanding of construction management software and modern site tech
  • Excellent organisational and problem-solving abilities
  • Strong commitment to quality, safety, and deadlines

Why Join Our Client?

  • Work with a growing company built on integrity, quality, and family values
  • Competitive salary and real opportunities for career growth
  • Join a professional team of skilled trades and trusted subcontractors
  • Access to modern tools and technology for smooth project management
  • Be part of a respected industry leader delivering high-quality residential projects
