* Work closely with technical, commercial, and sales teams to maintain smooth project delivery and resolve any potential issues.
* Provide regular progress updates to senior management, identifying potential risks and implementing solutions to maintain project timelines.
* Uphold and enforce health and safety regulations, ensuring a safe working environment across all sites.
* Conduct regular site inspections to ensure quality control and compliance with company policies.
What They Are Looking For:
* Proven experience as a Contracts Manager or Senior Site Manager within the house building sector.
* A strong background in residential construction, ideally within a build-to-sale environment.
* Exceptional leadership and management skills, with the ability to coordinate and motivate multiple site teams.
* A thorough understanding of construction methods, NHBC standards, health and safety legislation, and building regulations.
* Strong problem-solving abilities, with the capability to oversee multiple projects while maintaining attention to detail.
* The ability to build and maintain strong relationships with subcontractors, suppliers, and key stakeholders.
* A full UK driving licence and the flexibility to travel between sites across Northumberland.

* A competitive salary and benefits package, including a car allowance, pension scheme, and potential performance-related bonuses.
* The opportunity to work with a reputable, well-structured company that prioritises craftsmanship over high-volume output.
