This position is based out of Longcross, Surrey and will play a key role in supporting live projects and site teams across the region.
The Role:
This is a hands-on, delivery-focused role – suited to someone who enjoys being on the ground and directly involved in day-to-day operations, rather than purely overseeing from a distance.
You’ll take ownership of the business’s plant and equipment, ensuring it is:
* Available, compliant and properly maintained
* Correctly allocated across live civils and groundworks projects
* Cost-effective, efficient and fit for purpose
Key responsibilities include:
* Managing in-house plant and hired equipment
* Arranging servicing, inspections, certification and repairs
* Liaising closely with site teams to understand real-time plant requirements
* Controlling plant costs, utilisation and downtime
* Supporting safe systems of work and smooth project delivery
This is very much a “doer” role, not a desk-based management position.
About You:
The ideal candidate will come from a small to medium-sized civils or groundworks contractor, where being proactive and involved in the detail is essential.
You are likely to have:
* Proven experience managing plant within civils, groundworks, RC frames or enabling works
* Strong practical knowledge of construction plant and logistics
* A solutions-led, hands-on approach
* Confidence working closely with site management and senior leaders
Formal qualifications are welcome, but practical experience and attitude are key.
What’s on Offer:
* Long-term role within a stable, well-regarded contractor
* Real autonomy and ownership of the plant function
* Salary of £50k–£70k, dependent on experience
* Company vehicle included
