This is a permanent appointment within the company's contracts and project delivery team.

About the Company

The business is a family-run roofing contractor established in 1989, providing roofing services across commercial, residential and industrial properties.

Its capability covers both traditional and modern roofing systems. On the pitched roofing side, the company undertakes slating, tiling and leadwork, while its flat roofing experience includes built-up felt, single-ply, EPDM and GRP systems.

Projects range from roofing repairs and renewals through to complete roofing packages. The company has worked across offices, hotels, schools, healthcare buildings, religious buildings and other commercial and residential properties.

Health and safety is a major part of how the business operates. The company holds CHAS and Constructionline accreditation, is an NFRC member and operates an ISO 9001 accredited quality management system. It also holds Investors in People Silver status.

Why Join Them

This is a role for someone who wants genuine responsibility for roofing contracts rather than a position focused on one narrow roofing system.

The Roofing Contracts Manager will be involved across a mixture of flat and pitched roofing work, working with an established operational team and managing projects throughout two active construction regions.

For somebody already established within roofing, it offers the chance to join a contractor that has been operating for more than three decades while remaining a family-run business.

About the Role

As Roofing Contracts Manager, you will take responsibility for the successful delivery of roofing projects from pre-start through to completion.

The role will involve balancing site visits with planning and coordination, ensuring projects are properly resourced and that clients, site teams and suppliers remain aligned throughout the works.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Managing multiple flat and pitched roofing contracts

• Planning and coordinating projects from pre-start through to completion

• Overseeing site teams and subcontractors

• Monitoring programme, quality and project performance

• Maintaining health and safety standards across live projects

• Liaising with clients, suppliers and the wider management team

Candidate Background

The strongest candidate will already have experience delivering roofing projects and understand the practical requirements of managing roofing works on live construction sites.

You should ideally have:

• Previous experience as a Roofing Contracts Manager, Contracts Manager or experienced Roofing Project Manager

• Strong knowledge of flat roofing systems

• Experience of pitched roofing, including slate and tile roofing

• Experience managing multiple roofing projects and site teams

• A good understanding of health and safety within roofing and construction

• The ability to manage clients, programmes and project delivery across multiple locations

Experience with systems such as built-up felt, single-ply, EPDM or other commercial flat roofing systems would be particularly relevant.

Summary

This role would suit an experienced roofing professional who is comfortable taking ownership of projects and understands both the technical and operational side of contract delivery.

You will be joining an established specialist contractor with experience across both flat and pitched roofing, managing projects throughout the North West and Yorkshire.
