• Strong civils and or electrical background
• Ability to run a site independently and take full ownership
Desirable:
• IOSH or NEBOSH
• Knowledge of electrical standards and regulations

This role would suit a Site Manager who is comfortable being the lead on site, making decisions, and delivering the project through to completion.
There may also be an opportunity for a second Site Manager depending on project structure.
