* Experience working across multi-site demolition programmes
* Background with groundworks, earthworks, enabling works, civils or specialist demolition contractors
* Comfortable working on live sites where demolition interfaces with broader construction activity
* Experience supervising small to mid-sized demolition packages rather than only large flagship projects
