The company delivers fire door and passive fire works across multiple live projects and requires a confident, capable individual to help keep operations running smoothly from the office.

The Role

This is a hybrid role blending administration, scheduling, and project coordination. You will act as a central point of contact between the office and on-site teams, managing communications, coordinating subcontractors and suppliers, and keeping multiple project programmes on track. You will also be responsible for managing a small team of around two people, making prior supervisory or management experience an essential requirement for this position.

  * Acting as a central point of contact between the office and on-site teams

  * Highly organised with the ability to juggle multiple tasks and deadlines

  * Strong communication skills, both written and verbal

  * Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment across multiple projects

  * Proficient with general office systems and able to pick up new processes quickly

  * Background within construction, fire protection or a trade-based environment is advantageous but not essential
