Job description

Site Lead (Bristol)

Salary: £33,000 - £36,000

Type: Full-time; On-site

The Role

Our client is a creative workspace in Bristol. They are a heart-led business and they believe a great workspace is more than bricks and mortar. It's the standards, the experience, and the culture the businesses inside it feel day to day.

They are looking for a practical, emotionally intelligent Site Lead to keep the site running smoothly. You'll be the anchor for the building, managing day-to-day operations, handling enquiries, coordinating contractors, and staying on top of the small details that make a place feel cared for.

This role suits someone who takes pride in doing things properly. You'll be trusted to run the site without micromanagement, with real autonomy and clear responsibility.

Who They're Looking For

They hire for character first. You're likely a fit if you are:

• Calm under pressure: You can handle a stressed member, a frustrated contractor, or an awkward situation with calm, firm boundaries and genuine empathy.
• Observant: You don't walk past issues. If something looks messy, broken, unsafe, or "off", you take ownership and sort it or get the right person in.
• People-friendly, but professional: You can build rapport with members and visitors, help shape a positive atmosphere, and maintain clear professional boundaries.
• Practical and hands-on: You're happy doing walk-rounds, quick fixes, and keeping shared areas looking sharp.

What The Work Is Like

The job is a blend of focused admin / coordination and being present on the site.

• Coordination and Admin: Emails and calls, organising contractors, keeping basic compliance records tidy, updating simple trackers, and supporting basic invoicing / admin (training provided).
• People and Place: Walk-rounds, viewings, welcoming visitors, keeping shared areas tidy, and spotting issues early so they don't become problems.
• Out-of-hours and Flexibility: This is primarily a normal working hour, on-site role. That said, running a site does require some ownership.
• Vacancies: When our client has space to fill, they sometimes need quick replies to enquiries in the evening or at a weekend. Usually it takes a minute, but it makes the difference to the momentum.
• Rare Issues: Very occasionally, something may require out-of-hours support (e.g. alarm / urgent issue). If physical attendance is needed, they'll ensure you get that time back.

Core Responsibilities:

• Enquiries and Viewings: Respond quickly and professionally to keep the momentum moving, arrange viewings, and follow up well.
• Member Experience: Be the face of the site day-to-day. Handle requests, support a positive culture, and (optionally) help with light-touch community moments like coffee mornings.
• Standards and Compliance: Routine H&S basics, coordinating cleaners / contractors, and spotting issues before they become risks.
• Admin Support: Keep simple trackers up to date and support basic invoicing/admin tasks.

The Package:

• Salary: £36,000
• Holiday: 25 days + Bank Holidays + your Birthday off.
• Culture: A supportive, values-led environment where honesty is valued and your growth is encouraged.
