Facade Installation Site Manager - Manchester (Glazing/ Cladding) - On-site ‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾ T&D Glazing and Installation Limited (facade installation specialists since 2003) are hiring an experienced Facade Installation Site Manager for a project in Manchester (approx. 12 months, with potential to extend). This post is written by me, Toni Timis. We’re recruiting directly on this one because I also work hands-on in recruitment and prefer to run the process myself from start to finish. Recruiters, nothing personal - we do work with agencies on other roles, just not for this vacancy. Important (please read) ‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾ This is a site-first role. You must be on site every day, most of the day, walking the job, solving problems, pushing quality and programme. If your natural style is to sit in the office and wait for supervisors to "report up" to you, this role is not for you. We need someone whose instinct is to be where the work is. Role overview ‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾ This is not a massive project with layers of staff. In the beginning, the right Site Manager will also handle some simple tasks and light project management coordination, alongside day-to-day site control. Team size (as a guide): Q1 approx. 10-15 people, Q2 approx. 20-25, then it ramps as the job progresses, and towards the end (e.g. hoist infill) it may drop back to around 10 people (management + operatives included). • Day-to-day management of facade installation works (glazing/ curtain wall/ cladding/ rainscreen), • Lead supervisors and operatives, coordinate access, logistics, deliveries, and materials, • Short-term planning, look-aheads, progress reporting, programme coordination, • QA/QC: inspections, snagging, photos, installation records, handover evidence, • H&S: RAMS, permits, inductions, toolbox talks, compliance on a live site, • Digital correspondence: emails, trackers, site apps, BIM/ document control (where used) Must have ‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾ • Proven experience managing facade installation packages on UK sites (glazing and/or cladding), • Strong understanding of drawings/details and practical problem-solving on site, • Computer confident: Microsoft Office (locally installed on a company-provided, ready-to-use setup) - Outlook, Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Teams - plus Zoom, Dropbox, etc. for daily digital correspondence, • Comfortable with common site apps/ document control/ BIM workflows (where used), • CSCS Black Card (or a relevant degree if you’re not on a Black Card yet - we can help you sort it out, e.g. NVQ enrolment) Contract options ‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾ PAYE employed, CIS/ self-employed, or via your own Ltd company - to be agreed. Apply ‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾ On LinkedIn you can apply directly using this link: On LinkedIn I will be notified by LinkedIn, however if you find this ad elsewhere feel free to DM, email or WhatsApp your CV/ experience summary. If a CV is not handy, a simple message is fine (DM, email, WhatsApp). If you are genuinely interested, please check our website first, so you know what we do and who you are contacting, and this way you find my contact details too. Please note: our website is not updated yet, we plan to launch the new one by mid March. ========== P.S. We are the installation company (not a recruitment agency). Pay is confidential and agreed privately, but to satisfy the platform and those who prefer a guide: minimum £60k+, and we can go higher for the right person depending on experience, responsibility, and what you genuinely bring to site. If you're in this business, you know what you're worth, and you know what rates a specialist installer can afford to pay. P.P.S. We will also hire directly (regular weekly work) local people from Manchester if possible, or anyone willing to relocate, for roles like: Supervisors, Slingers/Signallers, Facade Installers, Fixers/Fixer's Mates, and Logistics Operatives. If that's you, just text: "Interested - I'm a ____" plus your experience and tickets (CSCS, CPCS/NPORS, etc.). P.P.P.S. We will also be looking for the right Project Manager for two upcoming projects, one starting September 2026 and one starting June 2027. If you are a proper facades PM and want to be considered early, message: "Interested - PM" and a short summary of your facades experience. Regards, Toni Timis (director) Quick notes, so we don't waste each other's time: • Rates are only agreed after a quick conversation, • Keep it polite, simple, and to the point, • Recruiters, we hire directly for this one, please respect that

Those same clients are asking for interim technology leaders: Interim CTOs ERP transformation leads Cyber Security Directors Heads of Data No one internally owns that market. That’s the opportunity. You’d take responsibility for building the senior interim technology practice, converting existing finance relationships into tech mandates and developing new ones of your own. The platform already exists: • Established brand in the interim market, • Warm board-level client relationships, • Infrastructure, compliance and back-office support, • A leadership team that understands interim recruitment The work typically sits at £500-£1,500 day rate, often tied to transformation programmes and PE-backed change projects. You’d have full autonomy over how you build the market with scope to hire once the desk is established. The package £70-80k base depending on experience Year 1 10% commission on all revenue, no threshold Year 2 onwards Up to 30% for top performers For the right person who builds this into a genuine practice, the founder has indicated there’s a longer-term conversation to be had around meaningful upside. That’s not a contractual promise, but it reflects how the business thinks about people who move the needle. Who this suits A recruiter already billing strongly in technology or transformation recruitment (typically £200k-£300k+) who wants to move further up the interim value chain and originate mandates at Programme Director, CTO and transformation leadership level rather than volume hiring. The business Founder-led interim specialist. 25 consultants. Strong retention. Confidential conversations welcome.
