Site Manager / Project Manager
Bespoke Staircases & Architectural Fabrication
London
We are working with an established, design led specialist contractor delivering high end staircase and architectural fabrication packages across prime residential and high end commercial projects.
Due to sustained growth and the award of a significant new Central London scheme, they are looking to appoint a Site Manager / Site Project Manager to take ownership of on-site delivery and act as the business’s senior representative on live projects.
This is a client facing role within a genuinely collaborative team - a much overused phrase but one that in this instance is genuine. The Directors have instilled a fantastic ethos within the company, where everyone looks out for each other and work together for the greater good of the business and their personal development.
The Role
Reporting to the Operations Director and working alongside a Project Manager, you will manage the on-site installation of bespoke staircases and architectural fabrications from readiness for site through to completion.
Key responsibilities include:
* Managing the planning, sequencing and execution of installation works on site
* Acting as the main point of contact with the main contractor and site team
* Representing the business professionally at the front end of the project
* Leading and supporting highly skilled in-house installation teams
* Ensuring exceptional quality standards are maintained throughout installation
* Coordinating with design and workshop teams to resolve technical or buildability issues
* Implementing and managing site-specific health and safety requirements, including RAMS, lift plans and hot works permits
* Proactively identifying and resolving site issues to protect programme and quality
* Maintaining accurate site records and providing clear progress reporting
The initial project is a £2m+ staircase package within a major commercial office fit-out in Central London.

* Strong understanding of site coordination, sequencing and logistics
* A detail-driven approach appropriate for bespoke and high-quality finishes
* Confident leadership style and the ability to work collaboratively
* Excellent communication skills with contractors, consultants and internal teams
* A proactive, solutions-led mindset
Essential:
* SMSTS or SSSTS

Desirable:
* Experience with bespoke fabrication, staircases, joinery or architectural metalwork
* Background working on or alongside the tools
* Experience operating between workshop production and site installation
