About You

We are looking for a confident Site Manager / Site Supervisor with experience in one or more of the following:

* Civil engineering

* Environmental works

* Waterways / water management

* Highways

* Vegetation or land management

* Utilities or other field-based operational environments

You should have experience managing site teams and subcontractors, ideally including responsibility for a ganger or equivalent operational resource.

Location & Travel

This is a field-based role, covering East Anglia, the East Midlands and Lincolnshire, with travel across a wide regional area.
