John Kirkham Herrera : "One of the most difficult jobs I've recruited for this year was a Site Manager role in Stockport and guess what? I'm recruiting for it again - you can read all about it here: https://lnkd.in/e5AMeHnt What were the complications behind the process? The client had asked for a couple of non-negotiables which were NVQ Level 6 (now they're flexible on this) and that the Site Manager had built a similar type of scheme (minimum 20 unit apartments with lightweight/steel frame). Nothing too tricky, really? YOU SAY THAT BUT BUGGER ME it has been a tough one to fill. Sometimes that happens. I mean, I had a job earlier this year for a CANAL PROJECT MANAGER and managed to fill it - someone specifically who'd re-built part of a canal/disused canal. They're like rocking horse shit! So, give me a bell if you know anyone available. The site has started so this person can start quickly, too, with a package up to £55,000 plus car allowance plus bonus plus a pretty easy way of working within the business. I always say the people who join this business ain't gonna end up rich but they also ain't gonna end up frazzled. You can't count your money if you're braindead from stress! Our advert is here: https://lnkd.in/e5AMeHnt and I'm available on 07766 557554 or john.kirkham@herrerahomes.co.uk"

NHBC names UK’s best site managers as Pride in the Job 2024 Awards announced The Pride in the Job 2024 Quality Award winners have been announced today by NHBC. The awards celebrate the best UK site managers and their dedication to raising standards in house building. Now in its 44th year and widely considered the ‘Oscars’ of the house-building industry, Pride in the Job has become the benchmark for exceptional site managers. Judging is rigorous, with assessment across six key areas: consistency, attention to detail, leadership, interpretation of drawings and specifications, technical expertise and health and safety. Thousands of inspections, with meticulous scoring and detailed verifications, have taken place to determine the 449 winners from a field of more than 8,000 sites, representing the top 5% of UK site managers. Commenting on the awards, Steve Wood, CEO at NHBC said: “For more than four decades, Pride in the Job has underpinned NHBC’s purpose of raising standards in house building. The competition recognises the UK’s top site managers, showcasing best practice and rewarding excellence. “Winning site managers demonstrate dedication, passion and leadership to ensure new homes are delivered to exacting construction quality standards. While house building is a team effort, we believe the greatest influence on the quality of a finished home is the calibre of the site manager and the way they inspire their team. Congratulations to all the winners.” Pride https://lnkd.in/dcg7mgAa
