Description

We are working with a leading national contractor with a region office in Southwest of England. The company have operated in this region for many years and have a secured worked load made up of long-term frameworks, across environmental and highways and broader civil engineering. Due to a continually expanding pipeline of work, my client requires a General Foreman to work on highways, groundworks, bridge refurbishment, utilities, and traffic management across their sites in Bristol & North Somerset. What the employer is looking for: * Proven experience as a General Foreman or Site Supervisor in civil engineering. * Strong groundworks and highways experience. * Experience coordinating utility diversions with service providers. * Experience working within traffic management/live highway environments. * Ability to manage several work fronts and lead direct labour and subcontractors. * Good understanding of HSEQ requirements and site documentation. * SSSTS or SMSTS certification. * CSCS card. * Ability to work closely with a Site Agent and keep projects on programme. What the job involves day to day: You'd essentially be the hands-on site leader, making sure the planned works are delivered safely and efficiently. That includes coordinating crews, plant, subcontractors, and utilities; monitoring progress; maintaining site records; dealing with issues as they arise; and ensuring the work matches the drawings/specification. The role appears particularly suited to someone who has worked on live highway/civil engineering sites, rather than someone whose experience is primarily in building construction. Employment Package: * Competitive salary based on experience. * Staff or weekly-paid employment options. * Long-term work in the Western region. * Career development and support. * A portfolio covering highways, bridges, and associated infrastructure
