Site Manager - Painter & Decorator

Working Site Manager - Painter & Decorator

Rate: £280-£300 per shift
Hours: 8pm-6am
Days: Sunday-Thursday nights
Sector: Shopfitting / Retail Refurbishment

The Role

We're looking for a Painter & Decorator who holds SMSTS and is comfortable stepping up into a hands-on Site Manager role.

The company specialises in refurbishing high street retail stores, with the work taking place overnight while stores are closed.

You'll be responsible for the day-to-day running of the site, Health & Safety and managing the small team, but the role is very much hands-on. When you're not managing the site, you'll be expected to get your tools out and carry out painting and decorating works yourself.

You'll have a Joiner and Labourer working alongside you.

Your Role

Take responsibility for the site during the night shift
Manage Health & Safety and ensure site procedures are followed
Coordinate the Joiner and Labourer
Complete site checks, inductions and relevant paperwork
Keep the team on programme and ensure the work is completed each night
Liaise with the Project Manager where required
Carry out painting and decorating works
Help with general refurbishment works where required
Bring your own decorating tools and be prepared to get stuck in
Ensure the store is left clean, safe and ready for the next stage of works

About You

We're specifically looking for a time-served Painter & Decorator who has moved into Site Management or has Site Management experience.

You'll need:

Strong Painter & Decorator background
Valid SMSTS - essential
Previous experience managing a site or supervising a team
Good understanding of Health & Safety
Confidence managing a small team
Excellent painting and finishing skills
Your own tools
A hands-on attitude - you're happy to pick up the brush/roller and get involved
Retail, shopfitting or refurbishment experience would be advantageous
Comfortable working night shifts

The Important Bit

This is a hands-on role.

We don't need a Site Manager who wants to sit in the office all night. We're looking for a Painter & Decorator with SMSTS who can take control of the site when required but is equally happy getting stuck into the decorating works.

You'll spend part of the shift managing the site and Health & Safety, with the rest of the night spent painting, decorating and helping the team get the store over the line.
