Job Description
If you're an experienced Site Manager, or a commercial Foreman ready to take the next step, I'd like to have a chat.
n
I'm working with an established builder looking for a Site Manager to join their Central Coast team. Their projects typically range from $5m–$20m, with a healthy pipeline of commercial new builds, refurbishments and fit-outs across the region.
n
There's a varied mix of work ahead, including early learning facilities, education and hospitality projects a good opportunity for someone who enjoys the construction process as much as getting the finishing details right.
n
They're looking for someone who knows how to run a site, gets the best out of their trades and takes pride in delivering a good job.
The role n
Working closely with the Project Manager, you'll take responsibility for the day-to-day management of site, keeping construction moving safely, to programme and to the required standard.
n
n
Managing subcontractors, trades and daily site activities.
n
Planning construction sequencing and maintaining short-term programmes in line with the overall project programme.
n
Coordinating trades, materials, deliveries and site logistics.
n
Reviewing drawings and specifications, identifying issues and working with the project team to resolve them.
n
Monitoring workmanship and managing quality inspections, defects and handover.
n
Managing site safety, inductions and WHS requirements.
n
Keeping the Project Manager informed of progress, delays and decisions needed to keep the job moving.
n
What we're looking for n
Commercial construction experience is essential for this role. We're looking for someone who has supervised or managed commercial new builds, refurbishments or fit-outs, ideally on projects of a similar scale.
n
A trade background, particularly carpentry, will be highly regarded. Candidates with a mix of commercial and residential experience are welcome,



but a solely residential background won't meet the requirements for this position.
n
You'll need to be organised, confident managing subcontractors and comfortable taking ownership of site delivery. Clear communication matters both with the project team and the people doing the work.
n
An experienced commercial Foreman ready to move into Site Management will also be considered, provided you can demonstrate the experience and capability to run a site.
Looking for something long term? n
This is a family-oriented business with a settled team and plenty of long-serving people. With a healthy pipeline of projects coming up on the Central Coast, they're looking for someone who wants to become part of the business and stay beyond the next job.
n
A solid track record with previous employers will be valued, along with someone who takes ownership of their work and builds good relationships on site.
n
If you're looking for your next short stint, this probably won't be the right fit. But if you're looking for a builder you can settle in with, deliver good projects and build a future with, I'd like to have a chat.
n
Projects finish and circumstances change, so I'm happy to understand the reasons behind previous moves. What matters is that your next move is one you're reliable about.
What's on offer n
n
$160,000–$180,000 base salary + super, depending on experience.
n
A permanent, full-time position with projects based on the Central Coast.
n
A healthy pipeline of varied commercial work across the region.
n
Support from the Project Manager and wider construction team.
n
The opportunity to join a settled business and build a long-term career.
n
n
The builder's name will be shared after an initial chat about your experience and suitability for the role.
n
If you're based on the Coast, or looking to make the move, give me a call and I'll talk you through the builder, the work and what they're looking for.
