• Risk & Compliance – Identify risks and ensure site inspections (including waterproofing/cavity checks) are carried out.
• Reporting – Provide progress updates to clients and stakeholders.

Why You’ll Love It

• Client-Side Role – Work directly with clients, not a builder.

• Support & Autonomy – Mentorship available without micromanagement.
• Career Growth – Ongoing professional development and clear progression.
• Culture – A collaborative, supportive, and social team environment.
