Site Manager - Solar Farm

Description

Site Manager | Solar Farm | £300 per shift

Location: Stapleford Tawney, Essex, RM4 1EE

Hours: Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm

Duration: Approximately 2 months

Start: ASAP

We are recruiting an experienced number one Site Manager to take full day-to-day control of a 20–25MW solar farm project in Essex.

This needs a confident, decisive site leader who can establish clear expectations, hold subcontractors accountable and improve productivity while maintaining safe working practices. You must be comfortable taking charge of an existing workforce, addressing underperformance professionally and driving the programme forward.

Relevant renewable energy construction experience is essential. Our first preference is a proven number one Site Manager who has run solar farm projects. Experienced managers from BESS or renewables substation construction projects will also be considered. General construction experience alone, or solar experience limited to labouring, will not meet the brief.

The role

* Take ownership of daily site operations, workforce coordination and subcontractor performance.

* Set daily and weekly targets, monitor progress and tackle delays to get the programme up to speed.

* Coordinate civils, groundworks, drainage, trenching, ducting, foundations and associated installation activities.

* Lead site briefings and toolbox talks, enforce RAMS and safe systems of work, and maintain clear site records.

* Manage access, deliveries, plant and sequencing so teams can work safely and productively.

* Liaise with the client and project team, raise issues promptly and provide straightforward progress updates.

Essential requirements

* Substantial experience running construction sites as the number one Site Manager.

* Proven solar farm, BESS or renewables substation project experience, with direct responsibility for site teams and delivery.

* A strong practical understanding of civils and groundworks.

* A firm, professional leadership style and a track record of improving site performance.

* Current SMSTS or SSSTS, First Aid at Work and CSCS card. A Black CSCS Manager card is welcomed.

* Availability for an immediate start and reliable daily travel to RM4 1EE.

Highly desirable: IOSH or NEBOSH qualification. Please state the exact qualification held. xjnqpsq
