The Opportunity

Are you an experienced Site Manager looking to join a Tier 1 Main Contractor delivering high-quality, large-scale residential developments in Cork?

This is an excellent opportunity to join one of Ireland’s most respected and established construction companies, offering long-term stability, career progression, and the chance to take ownership of a major design & build apartment development that will challenge and reward in equal measure.


The Role

As Site Manager, you will lead the on-site delivery of a multi-block residential scheme comprising over 100 apartments across medium to high-rise buildings. Reporting directly to the Project Manager, you will ensure that the project is completed safely, on time, within budget, and to the highest quality and safety standards expected of a Tier 1 contractor.

  • Oversee concrete frame construction, precast installation, façade works, and fit-out phases.

  • Maintain strict compliance with Health, Safety, Quality, and Environmental standards.

  • Monitor project programme, budgets, and resource allocation to ensure timely delivery.

  • Liaise with clients, consultants, and subcontractors, fostering strong and professional working relationships.

  • Supervise and mentor site teams, ensuring all personnel operate to the highest standards.

  • Drive continuous improvement in construction efficiency, quality, and health & safety performance.


About You
  • Minimum 5 years’ experience as a Site Manager with a main contractor, ideally on large-scale residential or mixed-use projects.

  • Qualification in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or a related discipline.

  • Strong technical knowledge of RC frame, precast, and façade construction.

  • Proven track record in leading multi-storey residential or commercial projects.

  • Excellent communication, leadership, and problem-solving skills.

  • Proficient in Microsoft Office and project management software such as MS Project or Power Project.

  • Thorough understanding of building regulations, construction standards, and safety compliance.


What’s on Offer
  • Competitive salary up to €80,000, depending on experience

  • Company vehicle and pension package

  • The opportunity to manage a flagship Cork development with a Tier 1 contractor

  • A professional, supportive environment with genuine prospects for career progression
