The Opportunity
This is not your typical construction Site Manager position.
We’re looking for an experienced manager to oversee fabric-first retrofit projects – combining External Wall Insulation (EWI), solar PV installations, and associated structural and brickwork improvements across multiple sites.
Based in Newport, you’ll coordinate programmes of work and manage delivery across Cardiff, Bridgend, Newport, and Ebbw Vale.
You’ll ensure every project runs safely, efficiently, and to quality standards while maintaining strong relationships with clients, residents, and subcontractors.
This role suits a professional who can think commercially, communicate clearly, and manage programmes confidently — not a jobbing or hands-on site role, but one focused on planning, leadership, and delivery.
Key Responsibilities
- Programme and manage the delivery of retrofit projects across multiple live sites
- Lead subcontractor teams and ensure compliance with health and safety requirements
- Oversee EWI, PV, and general fabric improvement works, including brick and structural repairs
- Build and maintain relationships with clients, residents, and key stakeholders
- Use spreadsheets and digital systems to plan and monitor site progress, budgets, and performance
- Conduct regular site visits and inspections, ensuring quality, productivity, and compliance
- Support commercial and operational teams to meet targets and reporting deadlines
About You
- Proven experience within social housing, retrofit, or planned maintenance environments
- Strong knowledge of EWI, PV, or energy efficiency works
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
- Confident using spreadsheets and digital tools for programming and reporting
- Understanding of structural and brickwork repair processes
- SMSTS or IOSH Managing Safely and First Aid at Work certified
- Organised, proactive, and safety-conscious with a “right first time” approach
- PAS2035 knowledge desirable, but full training provided
Why Apply
This is a rare opportunity to step into a management role that combines leadership, sustainability, and community impact.
You’ll work within a respected contractor known for its quality standards, long-term contracts, and investment in people.
If you’re an experienced Site Manager or Supervisor with a background in retrofit, social housing, or fabric-first energy projects, this could be your next career move.
