Save Share Apply Freelance Site Manager | Near Little Bromwich, Birmingham
Start June 2025 | 5 Months | £3m Project | Retail / Supermarket Refurbishment
The Company:
Think of this main contractor as the John Lewis of Construction-solid, reliable, and unlikely to vanish overnight. They've got a specialist division that focuses entirely on retail. If it's got aisles and a dodgy self-checkout, they've probably built it. Now they need a Freelance Site Manager who can turn an old store near Little Bromwich into something a bit less...depressing.
The Project:
Right, here's the situation: The client's snapped up an old retail unit, and it's currently got all the charm of a 24-hour car park. Your job? Give it a full glow-up. Here's the plan:
·New Roof - Because free indoor swimming pool isn't exactly on-brand.
·Side Extension - Currently a garden, soon to be anything but.
·Paving - To stop customers from playing Dodge the Puddle' on their way in.
·Front Demo - Out with the old, in with something less... tragic.
·Mezzanine Floor Removal - Because the last time it was stylish, Blockbuster was still a thing.
·Full Refurb - Top to bottom, polished up and ready for the weekly shop.
·It's a £3 million project over 5 months. Not your typical weekend DIY, but if you've handled bigger builds than your nan's conservatory, you'll be fine.
What We're Looking For:
We need someone who's more than just a hard hat and a clipboard. If you:
·Know Your Retail: If you've built stores for the likes of Sainsbury's, Tesco, Morrison's, Co-Op, M&S, or Asda, your CV will be handled like it's the last packet of Hobnobs at a site tea break-snatched up and thoroughly appreciated.
·Run the Show: Projects from £200k to £5m where you were the boss-not the bloke who fetched the coffee.
·Stick Around: If you change jobs more often than a traffic light changes colour, this isn't for you. We want proof you don't bail at the first sign of rain.
·Understand Construction: Refurb, fit-out, technical know-how, and enough common sense to know a joist from a jib crane.
·Client-Friendly: You can talk shop without promising marble floors and chandeliers.
I know this ad's had a bit of fun, but let's be clear-I'm a serious recruiter working with a serious contractor, and this is a seriously good opportunity. If you've got the experience and the grit to handle projects that matter, I want to hear from you.
