- Assistant Site Manager
£35k-£40k plus package
Central London
You've Built Something. Now Run It.
Most site managers spend their career executing someone else's vision. You'll spend the next five years building yours. Our client is a £150m-turnover contractor with ten years of pipeline visibility and the rare combination of scale with genuine family culture—large enough to work on a £130m commercial scheme spanning multiple floors, small enough that you're not a number. They're adding to the team because the work exists, not because someone left. That's the difference between a job and a career.
The Real Opportunity
You'll manage fit-out delivery on a multi-year commercial project from shell-and-core through to handover. You're not shadowing a senior manager—you're running your own packages, making decisions, and owning outcomes. The project timeline means you'll see the full arc of a build: complexity, problem-solving, learning that doesn't come from a textbook. You'll work alongside experienced site teams who've built together for years. That stability matters. People stay, knowledge stays, mentorship is real.
So What Does That Mean For You?
You'll build genuine expertise in a sector with proven demand. Which means five years from now, you're not competing for generic roles—you're the person contractors call when they need someone who's proven they can run a multi-year programme. You'll also work inside an organisation where longevity is normal, not exceptional. Which means trust, opportunity for advancement, and the kind of relationships that shape your entire career.
The Honest Part
You need fit-out experience and the ability to run your own projects independently. That's non-negotiable because this role requires you to hit the ground capable of making site-level decisions without constant oversight. It exists as a requirement because the scale of the scheme demands it.
The Business
Our client is a commercial contractor with a reputation built over decades. They deliver complex fit-out and refurbishment programmes across London and beyond. Clients return to them because they deliver on time and to spec. That stability funds the ten-year pipeline and the team you'd join.
What We Need
Proven fit-out site management experience. Ability to manage subcontractors and work packages independently. Full UK driving licence.
