Full time Administration

Job Description

We have a great opportunity for a Site Administrator to join our development Malago Road located in Bedminster on a fixed term contract until April 2028.

The development is a 484?bed purpose-built student accommodation scheme, one of the final projects within the Bedminster Green regeneration area, following two years of negotiation with the Council. Previously an engineering works and foundry, the brownfield site will be brought back into use with high?quality student homes across three buildings of six to ten storeys. The scheme will create new public space, improve highway infrastructure, and support local businesses particularly those on nearby East Street through increased footfall from the new student population.

As a Site Administrator, you ll be at the heart of a busy, fast?paced construction project keeping everything running smoothly and ensuring every interaction, whether with colleagues, contractors, or visitors, is positive, professional, and effortless.

Based on site, you ll take on a wide variety of responsibilities, from day?to?day administration and maintaining a well-presented site, to organising visitors and keeping communication flowing. You ll manage accurate records and ensure key information is always accessible, maintain and update the subcontractor directory, support meetings with clear and concise minutes, and help keep essential supplies well?stocked so the team can focus on delivery.

About You

For a development of this scale, we re looking for someone with solid administrative experience, someone who thrives in a hands?on role where no two days look the same. You ll bring strong organisational skills, attention to detail, and the ability to juggle multiple tasks with confidence.

You ll also be a people person: approachable, proactive, and comfortable building relationships with a wide range of internal and external stakeholders. Excellent communication skills are essential, as you ll often be the first point of contact on site. Experience with document control systems would be a real advantage.

If you enjoy being the go?to person who keeps everything (and everyone!) on track, this is a fantastic opportunity to make a real impact at the centre of a major development.

At Watkin Jones, we believe in investing in our people. Here s what we can offer you:

  • Work-Life Balance: 25 days of annual leave (increasing with tenure) and discounted gym memberships.
  • Wellbeing: Access to Your Wellbeing programme & OpenUp a confidential wellbeing platform.
  • Rewards: Discretionary annual bonus, health cash plan, life insurance, and more.
