About the role

As Site Manager, you will run allocated landscape construction jobs from start on site through to practical completion — not just supervising the crew, but owning the job. You'll be on the tools every day, working alongside your crew while also setting the daily plan and sequence of work. You'll manage quality and finish, and work closely with your Project Manager to keep every job on programme and on budget. This is a genuine step up in responsibility, with real support and a clear development path as our Central West team grows.

Key responsibilities

- Run your allocated jobs from start on site through to practical completion — the whole build, start to finish
- Work on the tools every day alongside your crew — this is a hands-on role, not just supervision
- Set the daily plan and sequence of work for your crew
- Confirm material quantities before ordering and check deliveries against the job
- Induct subcontractors on your job, set the standard, and flag the same day if work isn't right or a subbie doesn't show
- Identify anything outside scope and stop work — nothing extra gets built until it's priced and approved
- Complete a daily site report every day — progress, plan, labour, materials, blockers
- Supervise excavation, set-out, levels and build quality through to handover
- Develop the apprentices in your crew and own site safety and presentation
- Communicate professionally with your Project Manager, clients on site, and other trades
