An established structural steelwork and architectural metalwork specialist is looking for an experienced Site Manager for projects in Central London. With more than 30 years in the industry, the company takes projects from early design through fabrication and finishing to installation.

Its work includes bespoke staircases, balustrades, balconies and bridges, alongside structural steel packages and large-scale sculptures. For a Site Manager who enjoys technically demanding work, there is plenty here to get involved in.

About the role

As Site Manager, you will oversee installation on site, organise the teams carrying out the work and coordinate with the main contractor and adjoining trades. You will keep a close eye on progress, site safety and the quality of the finished installation.

You will plan deliveries and access around the programme, check work against drawings and deal with problems before they delay the next stage. Clear communication with the design and fabrication teams will be an important part of the job, particularly where steelwork meets glass, timber or other finishes.

The company carries out design, fabrication and finishing in-house. You will work with the people producing the components you are responsible for installing, helping resolve queries between the workshop and site.

About you

You will need:

A valid SMSTS qualification.

Site management experience in both structural steelwork and architectural metalwork.

To be based in Central London / practical travelling distance.

You will be comfortable reading drawings, managing installation teams and discussing progress with the main contractor. You will understand how to sequence steelwork safely and recognise the level of care that visible architectural finishes require.

This role would suit someone who knows the trade, takes responsibility on site and wants to see a carefully fabricated piece through to a properly finished installation.
