What it involves

Our Armed Forces Transition Programme provides the experience, training and support you need to embark on a career in Site Management.

As a leading housebuilder, we work on hundreds of developments across the UK. And you’ll be at the heart of it all, learning how to co-ordinate different trades, direct labour and materials to delivering projects on time, within budget, and to the highest possible standards.

How you'll develop

From day one, you’ll work as a Trainee Assistant Site Manager and start developing the skills and knowledge you need to help run a site. You’ll gain your technical experience on-site, working through a range of modules over a 12-month period, covering everything from foundations to customer demonstrations. Through face-to-face group sessions and online learning modules, you’ll understand best practice and master the regulation and construction knowledge you need.

Further knowledge and qualifications you'll gain

You’ll also spend time in other departments across the business to gain an understanding of what they do and how this links into your role. This is supported by a matrix of Safety, Health and Environment (SHE) training and a module at a Simulation Centre where you can put into practice everything you’ve learnt. We’ll also encourage and support you to achieve your NVQ Level 4 in Construction Site Supervision.

Who we look for

Maybe you’re serving in the Armed Forces now, or have done in the past. Either way, we’re looking for people with strong leadership skills and the ability to work in diverse environments; people who can solve problems creatively and work well under pressure. We pride ourselves on the quality of our work, and if you do the same, then we want to hear from you.  If you have construction experience that’s great, but it’s certainly not essential. And you don’t need any formal qualifications. What really matters is that you’re passionate about starting a career in construction and can show us that.
