Civil Construction Supervisor

A Civil Construction Supervisor manages construction sites for civil engineering projects such as roads, bridges, and drainage systems. You might work on large-scale infrastructure projects or smaller civil works. Civil Construction Supervisors oversee day-to-day operations, ensuring work is completed safely, on time, and to specification. You’ll coordinate with contractors, manage resources, and ensure compliance with regulations and standards.

Civil Construction Supervisors play a crucial role in the successful delivery of construction projects. You’ll need to be organised, decisive, and able to communicate effectively with a diverse team. You’ll liaise with engineers, planners, and clients to ensure that project goals are met and any issues are resolved promptly.
