• Proven experience as a Site Manager within subcontract fit-out, ideally focused on:
  • Metal ceilings
  • Suspended ceilings
  • Fire-rated or protected ceilings
  • Chill beam ceiling systems
• Stable employment history within a ceiling or partition subcontractor
• Desire to progress long-term into Project and Contracts Management
• Flexibility to work on different sites in the region (expenses paid)

What They Offer:

• Competitive salary with car allowance
• 25 days annual leave
• Pension & Private Healthcare
• Life Insurance
• All travel expenses covered
• Structured career path to Project and Contracts Manager
• Comprehensive internal and external training
• Support from an experienced senior team (with planned succession openings)
