The role

In the role of Senior Construction Manager, your duties include maintaining adherence to the UU SACRED principles (Safety, Authorisation, Customer, Right First Time, Environmental and Drinking Water) rules throughout the project’s Deliver phase and among my team members. Additionally, you will be tasked with overseeing the contractor’s performance on behalf of our clients, ensuring that the funds provided by our customers are utilised efficiently in their projects, and guiding your team to uphold these standards across the entire program.

In the capacity of Senior Construction Manager, you will assume the role of Supervisor under the NEC4 Contract. This position grants you specific contractual authorities within the agreement.

We are excited to offer you a flexible and hybrid working model that lets you balance your work and life and enjoy the benefits of working with us wherever you are. In-person attendance is required three days per week at site to promote the benefits of face-to-face collaboration, alongside flexibility of hours to support work-life balance. Initially, you may be expected to attend more frequently to familiarise yourselves with the site, the team, and your role.

Key accountabilities

  • Lead a team of Construction Managers and Construction Coordinators, including the undertaking of direct line management responsibilities
  • Ensure co-ordination and co-operation of own employees and contractors with other UU departments and external bodies for the purposes of work execution, auditing and reporting.
  • Support the Construction Delivery Manager in developing approaches and strategies to managing SACRED with a variety of contractors and contract forms within each Directorate
  • Support the Construction Delivery Managers in the deployment of Construction Team resources across Directorates and County Models as directed.
  • Participate in the selection, induction and evaluation of direct reports and management of training and development of employees. This includes taking into account long-term career development needs as well as improving effectiveness in performance of current job.
  • Support the development and implementation of business continuity plans
  • Work as part of a project team consisting of internal and external members to ensure delivery of agreed outcomes against the UU SACRED rules
  • Develop strong on site relationships with UU Operations and Contractors to ensure successful project outcomes
  • Fulfil the role of the Supervisor under the NEC Conditions of Contract
  • Proactively manage on site risks and changes, and escalate issues affecting programme / project delivery
  • Review key documents such as the works schedule, risk assessments, method statements and inspection and test plans to ensure that risk is understood / managed and that work is undertaken in accordance with the UU SACRED rules, contractual requirements and the agreed plan
  • Manage the Defects resolution process, including issue the Defect Certificate at the end of the defect correction period
