Reginald Gray

Site Manager High-End Residential Projects

£55,000 + Package Oxfordshire / Home Counties

Construction isn t always what you expect.
At least, not here.

We re working with a quietly confident contractor known for delivering beautifully crafted homes, intricate refurbishments, and high-end new builds without shouting about it. The focus is on excellence, planning, and getting things right. Every project is a one-off, with its own quirks and character, and we re looking for a Site Manager who thrives in that kind of environment.

This isn t about churning out units. It s about managing complexity, motivating skilled teams, and keeping the programme sharp while never losing sight of the details that matter most to the client.

Your Role
As a Site Manager, you ll take full ownership of on-site operations. You ll plan, coordinate, and lead the build from start to finish, with minimal input from the Contracts Manager. From resourcing and sequencing trades to managing timelines and anticipating challenges before they arrive you ll be the heartbeat of the site.

You ll be expected to:

• Lead your site team in line with company values and HR policies
• Plan activities 4+ weeks ahead, with a strong grip on labour and resource needs
• Create and maintain a clear programme of works using planning software
• Coordinate complex and interlinked tasks with clarity and foresight
• Maintain a high standard of health, safety, and quality across the board
• Communicate closely with subcontractors, consultants, and your senior team
• Own every detail on site from delivery schedules to client walkthroughs

What You ll Need to Bring

• Strong technical and construction knowledge
• Experience in high-quality refurbishments, listed buildings, or bespoke new builds
• Calm, structured leadership under pressure
• A good understanding of contractual responsibilities
• A proactive mindset you don’t wait to be told, you plan ahead
• SMSTS, CSCS, First Aid
• A sense of humour helps (especially on those muddy Mondays)

A Typical Project
You ll be joining a contractor with a regional portfolio of projects valued between £5m and £15m often involving listed properties, sensitive refurbishments, and highly detailed finishes. Quality and planning are everything. When you’re not on site, you ll work out of a modern and well-equipped office space in Basing View, complete with gym, café, roof terrace, and secure bike storage.
