The Temporary Works Coordinator Market
Excavation support, falsework and propping are where civils incidents concentrate, and BS 5975 treats temporary works coordination as a defined competence with a documented appointment for exactly that reason: the Coordinator is responsible for ensuring a suitable design is prepared, checked and implemented on site. The hiring failure here is specific and common — a candidate who has only ever signed off someone else’s design is not that competence. The pool is small because the role sits between design and delivery and needs credibility in both, and it is one of the few civils roles where a contract appointment at £450 to £550 a day is unremarkable. ARG asks which appointments a candidate has actually held and what they have checked.

What does a Temporary Works Coordinator do?
Under BS 5975, the Temporary Works Coordinator is the documented appointment responsible for ensuring a suitable temporary works design is prepared, independently checked and implemented on site — excavation support, falsework, propping, back-propping and the rest. It is a defined competence with a register and a permit regime, not a job title that can be assigned to whoever is available.
What does a Temporary Works Coordinator earn in the UK?
Published market guidance puts a UK temporary works coordinator at £45,000 to £65,000, with day rates of £450 to £550 where the appointment is on a contract basis. The pool is small because the role needs credibility in both design and delivery. That is published market guidance compiled from UK sources, not a quotation and not Andrews Recruitment Group placement data.
How do you tell a real Temporary Works Coordinator from someone who has done the course?
By what they have checked and what they have refused. A coordinator who has only countersigned designs prepared and checked by others has not exercised the competence. ARG asks for the specific appointments held, the categories of temporary works covered, and examples where a design was sent back — the last one is the most revealing question on the list.
