On-Site NVQs for Site Supervisors and Managers

Running a site takes experience, clear communication and the confidence to keep work moving safely and on time. Many supervisors start by learning on the job, but to take the next step — or to meet client and employer requirements — a recognised NVQ is essential.

If you’re already supervising teams, organising work or supporting day-to-day operations on site, an NVQ gives you the qualification to match the responsibilities you’re already taking on. All assessments happen while you work, so there’s no classroom learning and no written exams.

The NVQs below cover different stages of a leadership career in construction, from team supervision to high-level site management.

NVQ Levels Available for Site Supervision and Management

The Level 3 NVQ in Occupational Work Supervision is ideal for working supervisors who coordinate small teams, check work quality and ensure safe working practices on site.

The Level 4 NVQ in Construction Site Supervision suits supervisors taking responsibility for larger areas of work, planning activities, liaising with managers and making sure projects run smoothly.

For those stepping into higher management roles, the Level 6 NVQ in Construction Site Management provides a recognised route into managing whole projects, overseeing safety and quality, and leading multiple teams.

The Level 7 NVQ in Construction Senior Management is aimed at experienced professionals operating at senior level, taking strategic responsibility for major projects and organisational performance.

All these NVQs are assessed through real site evidence, giving you a straightforward way to gain a qualification and progress in your construction career.
