  • Obtain and evaluate supplier and subcontractor quotations

  • Excellent organisation and communication, with a proactive approach

Additional Information:

  • Office-based role (Windsor & Maidenhead Borough location)
  • Own vehicle required; must live within approx. 90 minutes' travel of the office
  • This role does not offer hybrid or remote working

  • Ability to pass a Criminal Record Check
  • All relevant site and security training will be provided as required

Job Type: Full-time
