We are recruiting on behalf of a client for an experienced Site Manager to oversee a commercial Cat B office fit out in central Bristol.
The project is due to start on 1 September 2026 and is expected to run for around 10 weeks.
The scheme is a commercial office refurbishment at Bristol, with works including partition walls, acoustic ceilings, power, data, air conditioning, meeting rooms, breakout areas, kitchen space, comms area and associated finishes.
