Clerk of Works

Worcester

£40,000- £50,000

This company believes in promoting staff within the organization rather than taking on Director level professionals from other companies.

Get ready to dive into a diverse spectrum of projects, including the pivotal areas of cladding remediation and high-risk buildings across housing and care sectors. This role will be working across a wide area from South Wales to Birmingham and Oxford.

Your responsibilities as a Clerk of Works include:

• Vigilantly monitoring and inspecting ongoing work, even that of our dedicated sub-contractors, ensuring strict compliance with project specifications.
• Playing the role of quality advocate by promptly reporting any instances of workmanship or materials that fall short of our high standards, directly to the Project Manager and Principal Contractor.
• Keeping the wheels of progress turning smoothly by preparing and submitting detailed Clerk of Works reports and efficiently managing task allocation and tracking, employing cutting-edge tools like Fieldview or similar systems.
• Exceeding expectations by diligently adhering to reporting guidelines that align with the specific scope of services we offer.
• Maintaining a meticulously detailed diary of work progress, identifying potential delays, subpar workmanship or materials, site visitors, and weather conditions on a weekly basis.
• Being the eyes and ears on the ground, swiftly recording any incidents or situations that could potentially disrupt project timelines, and immediately notifying the Project Manager.
• Offering practical and expert advice as needed to the Project Manager, providing valuable insights that keep the building contract on the right track.
• Adeptly identifying and addressing any queries related to drawings and specifications, ensuring seamless coordination between all project documents. You'll also play a pivotal role in evaluating drawings during the pre-construction phase if requested.
• Showcasing your dedication by attending project sites and offering a comprehensive service in line with the requirements of the building contract.

The ideal Clerk of Works will be:

• Able to demonstrate relevant experience in high risk building cladding remediation works or construction works.
• A chartered member of RICS, CIOB or ICWCI.
• If not already chartered, be able to demonstrate relevant experience to become chartered.
• Proficient use of IT including tablets.
