Join an enterprise Property & Construction company as a Site Agent in New York.
Large-scale builds don't run themselves.
Someone has to hold the programme together while subcontractors, materials and inspectors all pull in different directions at once, and that's exactly where a Site Agent earns their keep.
This business has built its name on major commercial and residential schemes across New York, and it now needs an experienced Site Agent to keep one of its live sites moving on time, on budget and to spec.
Here's what you'll be doing: Running day-to-day site operations and keeping the build programme on track, from groundworks through to handover Coordinating subcontractors, suppliers and site staff so trades aren't tripping over each other Checking work against drawings and specifications, and flagging problems before they become expensive ones Holding daily briefings and progress meetings, and reporting status up to the project manager Enforcing health and safety standards on site, including inductions, toolbox talks and inspections Managing site records, delivery schedules and variation orders as the job moves forward Here are the skills you'll need: Several years' experience running sites within Property & Construction, ideally on projects of a similar scale Strong working knowledge of construction methods, sequencing and site safety regulations Confident reading technical drawings and specifications, and spotting where reality doesn't match the plan Clear communication skills.
You'll be the point of contact for trades, clients and inspectors alike A calm head under pressure.
Sites rarely go exactly to plan, and a good Site Agent adjusts without losing control Relevant certification such as SMSTS or equivalent, plus a full understanding of OSHA requirements Key perks and benefits: Salary of $69,000 to $92,500, based on experience Comprehensive benefits package including private medical and dental insurance Enhanced pension scheme and performance-based bonuses Office-based role within an established team, with clear reporting lines and structured career development Exposure to large-scale projects backed by proper frameworks and best practice, not improvised on the fly Why pursue a career in Property & Construction?
Property & Construction keeps building regardless of which way the wider economy turns, and New York's skyline is proof of how much work there always is to go round.
A Site Agent who delivers gets noticed fast, and the path from site level up to project and programme management is well worn for people who do the job properly.
Few sectors reward hands-on competence this directly, and New York remains one of the best places in the country to build that track record.
