Site Manager Job at East Grinstead, Sussex Full Time

Site Manager – 200 Unit Traditional Build

We’re working with an established award-winning developer with a strong track record of delivering quality residential schemes across the region. They’re looking for a Site Manager to lead a 200-unit traditional build development in a sought-after West Sussex setting.

You’ll have the support of an Assistant Site Manager beneath you, alongside a Project Manager overseeing the scheme – giving you the structure to focus on delivering a well-run, high-performing site.

What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll be the person setting the tone on site. Creating the standards, driving the pace, and making sure everything – from groundwork through to final handover – reflects the level expected of an award-winning developer.

• Leading the day-to-day running of a 200-unit traditional build development
• Setting and maintaining high standards across build quality, site presentation, and safety
• Keeping the programme moving, solving problems early, and keeping trades aligned
• Building strong relationships with subcontractors and holding them to account
• Taking ownership of NHBC inspections and ensuring everything is right first time
• Creating an environment where the team takes pride in what they’re delivering

What We’re Looking For

• Must have proven experience as a Site Manager within residential housebuilding
• Background working with a reputable developer or high-volume housebuilder
• Strong knowledge of NHBC standards and inspection processes
• Someone who takes pride in quality and wants to deliver something exceptional
• A natural leader who can motivate a team and keep standards consistently high
• Organised, driven, and comfortable being accountable for performance on site

What’s On Offer

• Up to 70,000 basic salary
• Competitive package + bonus
• Opportunity to lead a high-quality, flagship-style development
• Strong support structure with clear reporting lines
• A business that genuinely values quality and reputation

If you’re at the stage where you want more ownership, more responsibility, and the chance to deliver a site you can genuinely be proud of, this is worth a conversation.
