About you:

The ideal candidate will hold an NVQ Level 4, HND, or Degree in a construction, development, or project management-related subject. A CSCS card and SMSTS qualification are essential, while additional certifications such as health and safety training or a First Aid certificate are also advantageous. Candidates should demonstrate strong knowledge of the build sequence, best practices in construction project management, and current trends within the sector. Familiarity with contract law is advantageous. Proficiency in Microsoft Office applications and programming software is essential, supporting effective communication, planning, and project delivery.

At Watkin Jones, we believe in investing in our people. Here’s what we can offer you:

Work-Life Balance: 25 days of annual leave (increasing with tenure), hybrid working arrangements, and discounted gym memberships.

Wellbeing: Access to ‘Your Wellbeing’ programme & OpenUp – a confidential wellbeing platform.

Rewards: Discretionary annual bonus, health cash plan, life insurance, and more.
