Luxury Country House Fit-Out

Guildford, Surrey

Up to £65,000 + Package


A well-known contractor operating in the Super Prime Residential space is looking for a Site Manager to lead the internal fit-out of a £4m luxury countryside residence near Guildford.

The project is already out of the ground with all structural works complete. Now entering the most exciting stage - the bespoke internal fit-out phase, with exceptionally high-end finishes and detail-rich design elements throughout.


This is a client-facing position with clear progression, offering the chance to deliver a flagship build in a beautiful part of Surrey.


The Project

  • £4m+ countryside residence just outside of Guildford.

  • Full internal fit-out including joinery, AV systems, stonework, bespoke kitchen and bathrooms, and custom interiors.

  • Private client - UHNWI - with very high expectations for detail, quality and finish.

  • Site team includes working foreman, assistant, and specialist subcontractors.

  • Full design team in place and actively engaged.


The Role

  • Day-to-day responsibility for delivering the project on time, on budget and to spec.

  • Working closely with the Contracts Manager, in-house commercial team, and external consultants.

  • Coordinating subcontractors, managing quality control, site safety and client liaison.

  • Weekly client reporting and coordination with design team.

  • Setting short- and long-term programmes and ensuring delivery milestones are hit.


What You'll Need

  • Proven experience as a Site Manager delivering high-end or luxury residential projects.

  • A strong understanding of bespoke fit-out techniques, materials, and specialist packages.

  • Hands-on, solutions-focused attitude with the ability to manage complex finishes and sequencing.

  • Strong client-facing communication skills.

  • Ideally from a trade background (joinery, carpentry or similar), though not essential.


What's on Offer

  • Salary up to £65,000 + Package (travel, pension, holidays etc.).

  • An incredibly impressive project to lead - the kind that stands out on a CV.

  • Join a close-knit but growing business with an excellent reputation in the Prime Resi market.

  • Longer-term progression opportunities into Contracts or Project Management roles.

  • Great autonomy, direct client contact, and professional site support.
