This hybrid role combines strategic project planning with hands-on site management. You will take ownership of multiple residential projects – overseeing them from preconstruction through to completion.

A key focus of this position is detailed project planning before each build begins – preparing accurate schedules, resource plans, and risk assessments and ongoing planning during live projects to track progress, adjust priorities, and forecast needs.

This role is primarily remote and site-based, with regular communication through digital platforms and occasional in-person meetings at company offices or project locations. You will ensure the wider company has clear, real-time visibility of project status through consistent updates in Buildertrend and effective coordination between all teams.

• Lead pre-construction planning, including programme sequencing, resourcing, procurement schedules, and risk identification.
• Prepare and agree detailed project plans and timelines before any work begins.
• Hold mid-project planning sessions to track live progress, identify challenges early, and realign resources where needed.
• Keep Buildertrend and internal dashboards fully updated, ensuring the whole organisation can see real-time project status.
• Anticipate material, labour, and subcontractor needs several weeks ahead to prevent downtime or delays.
• Work closely with directors, estimators, and site teams to align costs, deadlines, and deliverables.
• Manage and process estimates, change orders, and variations promptly.
• Oversee project budgets and ensure accurate reporting of all expenditure.

• Lead and motivate the site team and subcontractors to deliver high-quality results safely and efficiently.
• Conduct daily briefings, toolbox talks, and on-site coordination meetings.
• Ensure Health & Safety compliance at all times.
• Monitor quality at every stage of the build, conducting inspections before each phase is signed off.
• Maintain daily logs, including photos, delivery records, and progress updates via Buildertrend.
• Address site issues quickly, proactively, and collaboratively.
• Ensure full visibility and communication between site teams and office staff.
• Maintain positive client relationships built on trust, transparency, and proactive updates.
• Lead weekly office coordination meetings (in person or online) and monthly company wide progress reviews.
• Provide clear, timely information to directors and colleagues to support business planning and delivery.

• Minimum 5 years’ experience in construction management, ideally in residential extensions or new builds.
• Strong leadership, communication, and organisational skills.
• Proven experience managing multiple projects simultaneously.
• Proficient in Buildertrend or similar project management software.
• Excellent planning and scheduling skills – both pre-construction and live project management.
• In-depth knowledge of UK construction processes, materials, and building regulations.
• Full UK driving licence and reliable transport (within 40-mile radius of Milton Keynes).
• A proactive problem-solver with a hands-on approach and attention to detail.
• Advantageous: RICS-accredited degree or similar qualification.

• £45,000 – £55,000 annual salary (depending on experience)
• 28 days annual leave (including bank holidays)
• Pension scheme
• A supportive, growth-oriented working environment
• Flexibility to work remotely, on-site, and attend meetings at various office locations as required
