Role Summary

  • The Site Manager is the primary driver of on-site execution, responsible for translating architectural vision into physical reality.
  • In this role, you will oversee day-to-day site operations, manage trade subcontractors, and enforce uncompromising quality, safety, and timeline standards.
  • You will act as the crucial link between project managers, procurement, and on-site crews, ensuring that commercial interior fit-outs are delivered on time, within budget, and strictly according to global standards.

Key Responsibilities

On-Site Leadership & Execution:

  • Lead, supervise, and direct daily operations for on-site workforces, trade subcontractors, and members of the Spacefinish Execution Network (SFBN).
  • Enforce strict adherence to architectural, MEP, and interior technical specifications with zero tolerance for specification gaps.
  • Maintain flawless site organization, cleanliness, and rigorous Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) standards.

Timeline Management & Resource Coordination:

  • Own, track, and execute site timelines using project management tools (MS Project, Asana, Trello) to ensure zero schedule slippage.
  • Partner directly with Project Managers and the Procurement & Supply Chain teams to track long-lead items, schedule just-in-time material deliveries, and optimize resource allocation.

Quality Assurance & Financial Discipline:

  • Execute Spacefinish's standard quality control procedures, inspecting completed works against technical drawings before client handovers.
  • Monitor site-level budgets and project expenditures daily using Excel/management software, identifying cost overrun risks early and proposing immediate corrective actions.
  • Assist in conducting weekly site audits and generating financial/risk updates for internal stakeholders.

Communication & Data-Driven Reporting:

  • Prepare and deliver concise, clear site progress reports (covering schedule, budget, safety, risk, and quality) using MS Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint).
  • Act as the primary technical point of contact on-site for sub-contractors, vendors, facility managers, and enterprise clients.

Proactive Problem-Solving & Risk Mitigation:

  • Anticipate and resolve immediate on-site design, spatial, or material challenges before they impact project timelines.
  • Escalate complex structural, supply chain, or design variations promptly with actionable solutions.

Key Qualifications & Skills

  • Education: BSc or HND in Construction Management, Building Technology, Architecture, Civil Engineering, or a related discipline.
  • Experience: 4-6 years of direct site management experience in commercial interior design, corporate fit-outs, or high-end architectural execution.
  • Background: Prior experience with reputable design-build, fit-out, or commercial construction firms.

Technical Proficiency:

  • Advanced ability to read, interpret, and translate technical architectural, structural, and MEP drawings.
  • Mastery of project tracking software like Asana, Trello, or MS Project, alongside standard MS Excel tools.

Core Competencies & Mindset:

  • Extreme Ownership Mentality: Takes end-to-end accountability for site outcomes, treating project budgets, safety, and client satisfaction as personal responsibilities rather than administrative tasks.
  • Process-Oriented Execution: Operates with high systematic discipline, faithfully executing standard operating procedures, site audit checklists, and delivery systems to guarantee repeatable, error-free results.
  • Superior Stakeholder Management: Builds trust and maintains firm, constructive alignment across clients, sub-contractors, vendors, and internal leaders.
  • Assertive Communication & Problem Solving: Communicates site needs clearly and acts decisively to resolve structural or material bottlenecks before they impact delivery timelines.
  • Sharp Time Management: Thrives under tight constraints, balancing competing priorities without compromising quality or safety standards.
