Site Operative–From £15 Per Hour– Horsham, RH12/ Variable when on site (UK and Europe)
The Role
Are you confident working across busy sites, under challenging time frames and enjoy contributing to a team environment? Do you want a job where every day brings something new — and your hard work really shows in the finished result? If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you.
We're looking for a Site Operative to join Chord, supporting the smooth delivery of world-class temporary structures. You will play a key part in bringing our clients' visions to life, taking on varied tasks across warehouse preparation, logistics and on-site assembly/dismantle.
When you're not on-site, you'll be based at our Ellen's Green (West Sussex) warehouse, preparing kit and equipment for upcoming projects. No two days are the same — one week you could be setting up at a major event, the next you're fine-tuning our materials ready for the next big build. Expect a fair bit of travel and overnight stays during our busy April–October season, with some other jobs in the quieter months.
If you enjoy practical work, take pride in getting the details right, and love being part of a great team, this is the role for you.
Key Responsibilities:
To help deliver the installation and dismantle programme of our temporary structures, supporting the team with the overall project delivery:
* To work as part of an experienced team with the Foreman and other Site Operatives

* To build and deconstruct our structures at designated site locations and ensure that all tasks are accurately carried out with due care and attention

* To report any issues or concerns to the Foreman - both on site and in the warehouse
* To attend team briefings prior to any jobs commencing and debriefing meetings following every dismantle
* To assist with loading all vehicles at the yard ready for departure for a job
* To be on stand-by rota for live days
* To assist in topping up materials/tools/stock in all vehicles at the end of each job
* To take part in the cleaning and maintenance of equipment.
