Key perks but not limited; 23 days annual leave, paid overtime and enhanced rates, company car with personal use, annual bonus (~10%) and long-term incentive plan and the opportunity to progress into Project Manager and wider leadership roles.
Why TMS Maritime? At TMS Maritime, you'll be part of a leading UK marine and civil engineering contractor delivering high-profile coastal protection, harbour, flood defences, piling and dredging projects throughout the UK. We work across marine, tidal and inland waterways with a “can-do” culture that values safety, quality, integrity and practical solutions.
The Role: As Site Agent / Site Manager, you'll take full ownership of daily site delivery across UK civil and marine infrastructure projects, ensuring work is safe, on programme and right first time.
Key responsibilities include:
Leading site operations including labour, subcontractors, plant, materials, logistics and traffic management.
Promoting and maintaining a proactive health, safety and environmental culture through briefings, toolbox talks, inspections and audits.
Managing technical delivery: drawings, specifications, ITPs, inspections and testing, working with engineering teams to solve challenges.
Short-term planning, tracking progress and providing clear, concise reporting.
Coordinating all stakeholders on site; clients, subcontractors, suppliers and internal teams to keep delivery seamless.
Supporting commercial teams with accurate site data.
Projects often work within tidal and programme constraints, requiring strong planning, prioritisation and problem-solving skills.
Location & Working Pattern:
UK-wide, site-based role; you'll be working across varied locations, not office based.
Regular travel and overnight stays will be required.
Typical hours: 07:30–17:30 with longer days dependent on programme and tidal windows.
Potential weekend work on busy programmes.
