Our People and Roles - Construction

Construction

Though we mainly employ contractors on site, we do have a need for construction specialists to oversee projects. It’s a big undertaking. At any given time, you’ll find us working on some circa 350 developments in both towns and rural areas across the UK, and every one poses unique challenges. Some are from scratch on brownfield sites; others see us adapting existing buildings, like old factories or disused hospitals. Some – like our ‘iPad’ homes – offer new concepts in city centre homes while others, such as the Barratt Green House, introduce new approaches to sustainable living. In each, we aim to create desirable and high quality living spaces, all at an attractive price. To do this, we need people who can bring us fresh ideas and imagination on one hand, and the commercial ability to manage people, budgets and costs on the other.

For an unprecedented seventh year, Site Managers have won more NHBC Pride in the Job Quality Awards than any other housebuilder.
