Working here isn’t just a job. You can advance your career at Avove, and we’ll reward you with a range of benefits that recognise great work. We provide full training and continuous development to help you reach your potential. We strive to create an inclusive working environment where everyone can be themselves. Join us and take the next step towards a fulfilling career.

About the Role

We’ve recently been awarded a major multi-million-pound design and build framework with Northumbrian Water Group (NWG) as part of its £3.6 billion Asset Management Period 8 (AMP8) investment programme. As we embark on this exciting 12-year framework, we’re looking for a Site Manager to join our Operations Team in the North East.

You’ll play a key role in leading site operations — ensuring projects are delivered safely, on time, and to a high standard. You’ll work closely with a diverse team of professionals who share your commitment to quality, safety and teamwork.

This is a full-time, permanent role based from our Berwick Site, with opportunities to develop and grow as part of one of the UK’s leading utilities infrastructure providers.

Please note: a full, valid driving licence is required for this role.

What You’ll Be Doing

Leading and organising site operations to deliver projects safely, on time, and within budget

Ensuring a competent, supported workforce (including subcontractors) is in place for all site activities

Carrying out site audits and inspections to maintain Health & Safety compliance

Performing quality checks in line with contract requirements, keeping accurate records of resources, materials and plant

Producing daily and weekly reports on site resources, materials and performance

Building strong relationships with customers, local authorities and third parties — acting as a trusted and professional site lead

You’ll have the opportunity to shape a safe, supportive and high-performing site culture where everyone feels empowered to succeed.

About You

You’re a confident communicator who enjoys leading teams, solving problems and creating a positive working environment. You bring strong decision-making skills and the ability to coach and support others — helping colleagues grow and deliver their best.

You’ll have:

A solid understanding of programme delivery and construction processes

Experience managing medium to heavy civils projects, including temporary works installations

Knowledge of the NEC form of contract and applicable HSEQ legislation

Strong commercial awareness and a practical approach to managing budgets and costs

Qualifications:

HNC or above (preferably in an engineering discipline)

Preferably Chartered Status (not essential)

SMSTS

Temporary Works Supervisor

CSCS or SHEA

First Aid

LOLER Appointed Persons

CDM Awareness

Confined Space (Medium Risk)

If you’re returning to work, looking to step up into leadership, or want a company that values flexibility and development, we’d love to hear from you.

What’s in It for You

We know everyone’s life looks different, so our benefits are designed to be flexible and supportive:

Competitive salary tailored to your skills and experience

24 days’ holiday plus bank holidays

Company car or car allowance

Company pension scheme

Life assurance

Private GP helpline & Health Cash Plan

Family-friendly policies and flexible working options

Financial wellbeing programme

Employee Assistance Programme and on-site mental health first aiders

Volunteering days and charity matched giving

Mentoring and leadership development opportunities

At Avove, your career can grow with you — whether you’re building confidence, broadening your experience, or taking on new challenges.

About Us

We design, build and maintain the UK’s utilities infrastructure — helping to keep the water running, the lights on, and communities connected. From sustainable engineering to digital innovation, everything we do helps shape a better future.

Our teams partner with leading utilities including Severn Trent, United Utilities, Yorkshire Water, Northern PowerGrid, Northumbrian Water Group, Scottish Power Energy Networks, and Scottish Water.

Inclusion at Avove

We’re proud to be an equal opportunities employer. We know that diverse perspectives make us stronger — and we’re committed to creating a workplace where everyone feels supported and empowered.

Our internal Communities of Practice champion inclusion and belonging, helping us continuously improve and ensure every colleague’s voice is heard.

If you’ve taken a career break, are returning to the sector, or want a workplace where you can thrive and be yourself — you’ll feel at home here.

What’s Next

If this sounds like the opportunity you’ve been waiting for, we’d love to hear from you. Apply today, or get in touch for an informal chat — we’re happy to discuss how this role could work for you
