Requirements

  • To be a success on the Programme you’ll enjoy learning new things, have a curious nature, be a superb communicator and you won’t be afraid to ask questions. Organised, reliable and professional, and a problem solver with the ability to think logically, you’ll have the initiative to start and complete tasks. It’s important that you possess good time management skills, are able to prioritise your work to meet agreed deadlines and have obtained or be working towards a 2:2 degree.
  • Please be aware that you should be willing to commute for up to an hour a day around the location for which you apply, and sometimes further. In some instances, you will be required to have a full UK driving licence on commencement of the Programme. See details below. This location can change if you’re assigned to a new site, and as Wates don’t support relocation, you should be comfortable that you can meet this requirement.

Responsibilities

  • When you join the Graduate Site Manager Programme, you’ll play a vital role in ensuring that projects are delivered safely, on time and within budget. You’ll be at the heart of the action and oversee various sub-contractors and operative activities, working across a number of workstreams within the business. Promoting and upholding Wates’ reputation for providing the highest standards of site safety, health, welfare and protection of the environment, you’ll work with our supply chain and surveyors to protect our commercial position and the potential for profit and repeat business.
  • But your work won’t stop there – you’ll focus on developing good working relationships with the client, design team and supply chain by promoting best practice throughout the whole construction process and cultivate an understanding of technical practices and sequences on projects. We’ll expect you to contribute your knowledge and skills to the delivery of the project on time, on budget and to the required quality, and ensure our sub-contractors are delivering at the highest standards. You’ll also work to understand the critical interfaces between design, procurement and construction, and gain knowledge of the latest developments in construction software and technology.
