Site Manager

Site Manager - Wastewater
North West
Contract - Outside IR35/ CIS

I'm working with a well-established contractor with a growing workload across the United Utilities region. They are delivering wastewater schemes across region and have a significant pipeline of new work coming through.

They're now looking for an experienced Site Manager to take ownership of multiple wastewater projects and become a key part of the delivery team. This isn't a role where you'll be boxed into one small scheme - you'll initially manage 2-3 projects, with the opportunity to oversee larger packages and multiple gangs as the programme grows.
The role will involve coordinating site teams and subcontractors, managing programme and delivery, and ensuring drainage, connections and associated civils works are completed safely and efficiently. You'll be trusted to run your own workload and make decisions on site, while taking genuine pressure off the wider management team.

Why this role is worth considering:

• Strong and growing pipeline of wastewater work
• Long-term opportunity rather than a short-term gap fill
• Genuine autonomy across multiple live projects
• Opportunity to take on larger schemes as the workload increases
• Flexible contractor arrangement, with LTD / CIS likely to be available
• Client is focused on quality and experience, not simply filling the role quickly

You'll need:

• Proven water industry experience, ideally wastewater
• Strong drainage and connections experience
• SMSTS
• First Aid
• Temporary Works Coordinator
• Experience managing multiple sites, gangs and subcontractors
• Good planning and programme awareness

AP status and programming experience would be advantageous, but aren't essential.

If you're an experienced wastewater Site Manager looking for more ownership, a growing workload and a contractor that will trust you to get on with delivery, this is worth a conversation.
