Contracts Manager

New Yesterday

We are currently working with a well-established small contractor who is looking to appoint a Contracts Manager to oversee a small portfolio of live projects around the St. Albans area.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a close-knit business delivering high-quality residential schemes, with real autonomy and the chance to make a visible impact.

The Role

The successful candidate will be responsible for running circa 3 live projects at any one time, with a combined turnover of approximately £2 million. Projects typically include:

* High-end residential refurbishments

* Extensions and loft conversions

* Basement construction

* Small new-build and structural works

You will oversee projects from pre-start through to handover, managing site teams, subcontractors, programmes, costs, quality and client relationships.

Key Responsibilities

* Overall delivery of multiple residential projects

* Programme and cost control

* Management of Site staff and subcontractors

* Client liaison and progress reporting

* Ensuring H&S, quality and compliance standards are met

* Supporting procurement and commercial control

Candidate Profile

* Proven experience as a Contracts Manager, Project Manager, or Senior Site Manager within residential construction

* Background in refurbishments, extensions, lofts or basements is highly desirable

* Strong organisational and communication skills

* Hands-on, commercially aware and proactive

Aspiring Site Managers who are ready to step up into a Contracts Manager role will also be considered, provided they have run multiple residential projects and are keen to progress.

If you’re looking for a role where you won’t be lost in a corporate structure and want real responsibility and progression, this could be an excellent next step
