•    Attending progress meetings and reporting site updates
•    Troubleshooting problems before they become problems
•    Keeping morale high and chaos low

Requirements
•    Proven experience managing large commercial fit out projects (ideally £10m+)
•    CSCS (black or white card preferred)
•    SMSTS
•    First Aid at Work
•    Strong understanding of fit out sequencing, detail finishes, and managing multiple trades
•    Calm under pressure, solutions-focused, and able to keep a sense of humour when the coffee machine breaks

•    Belfast-based site
•    Competitive day rate depending on experience
