About the role
We’re looking for a hands‑on Site Manager to lead day‑to‑day construction on a utility‑scale solar farm. You’ll work with the Project Director and other supervisors to plan work, coordinate resources and resolve issues that affect safety, quality or the programme. This role suits someone who enjoys being out in the field, knows how to sequence multiple work fronts and gives supervisors clear direction when priorities change. What you’ll do Lead daily site operations and coordinate supervisors, crews, subcontractors and plant. Turn the construction programme into practical daily and weekly plans, with clear priorities for each crew. Coordinate work fronts so crews have the access, materials,
equipment and information they need to get started. Lead site safety through pre-starts, field inspections and follow‑up on hazards, incidents and corrective actions. Track progress against the programme and raise delays, resource gaps and other constraints early with the Project Manager. Work with the quality team to coordinate inspections, close out defects and prepare completed work for handover. Keep the client and project team informed about site progress, upcoming works and decisions that affect delivery. What you’ll bring Experience as a Site Manager, Construction Manager or Senior Supervisor on large construction projects. Experience coordinating multiple crews, subcontractors and plant across concurrent work fronts. Strong knowledge of site safety, construction sequencing and quality requirements. Confidence reading drawings, following construction programmes and putting short‑term plans into practice. Transparent communication and the ability to make practical decisions when site conditions or priorities change. A current driver’s licence and White Card. Utility‑scale solar experience is highly regarded. We also welcome applicants with relevant experience in civil construction, renewables, infrastructure or other large‑scale projects.
