Working Foreman / Site Supervisor – Residential & Commercial Construction

Salary: £40,000–£55,000 per year, depending on experience
Company Vehicle
Full-Time | Permanent | Site-Based

WHL Projects is looking for an experienced Working Foreman / Site Supervisor to join our growing construction business, delivering residential and commercial refurbishment and construction projects.

This is a practical, hands-on role for someone with a strong trade background who can organise a site, coordinate subcontractors and carry out construction work themselves.

You will take ownership of day-to-day site activity, working closely with our management team to deliver safe, well-organised projects to a high standard.

Your Role

  • Organising daily site activities and coordinating subcontractors and directly employed trades.
  • Carrying out practical construction work within your trade and competence.
  • Planning work ahead, checking materials and keeping trades productive.
  • Maintaining site safety, housekeeping, security and quality standards.
  • Delivering site inductions and toolbox talks, checking RAMS and ensuring agreed working methods are followed.
  • Reading construction drawings and identifying queries before work proceeds.
  • Arranging materials, deliveries, access and site logistics.
  • Checking workmanship and addressing defects as work progresses.
  • Maintaining daily site records, progress photographs and updates.
  • Identifying delays, additional works and material requirements early, reporting these to the management team.
  • Coordinating snagging and helping prepare projects for handover.

The balance between practical work and supervision will depend on the size and stage of each project. You must be comfortable doing both and recognise when site supervision needs your full attention.

What We’re Looking For

Essential:

  • Previous experience as a working foreman, site supervisor or hands-on site manager.
  • A strong construction trade background, ideally joinery/carpentry or bricklaying.
  • Valid SSSTS or SMSTS.
  • Valid site First Aid qualification.
  • Appropriate CSCS card.
  • Experience delivering residential and/or commercial refurbishment and construction work.
  • Ability to read drawings, organise trades and maintain good workmanship.
  • Confidence identifying problems and finding practical solutions.
  • Full UK driving licence.

Highly desirable:

  • SMSTS.
  • Structural refurbishment and alteration experience.
  • Experience working in occupied buildings.
  • Experience across both residential and commercial projects.
  • Relevant trade or construction supervision qualifications.
  • IPAF / PASMA.

The Package

  • £40,000–£50,000 salary, depending on experience and qualifications.
  • Company vehicle or car allowance.
  • Business mileage expenses in line with company policy.
  • Additional day’s holiday on your birthday.
  • Permanent, full-time position.
  • Varied projects and opportunities to progress within WHL Projects.

Who We’re Looking For

You will be someone who leads by example, takes pride in their work and keeps a site organised. You should be comfortable working alongside the trades while giving clear instructions, checking quality and maintaining safe working practices.

Apply with your CV and a brief summary of your trade background, supervisory experience and current qualifications.

Work Location: In person, across project sites.

Pay: £40,000.00-£55,000.00 per year

Work Location: In person
