5D are delighted to be working exclusively with established land brokers, and development advisors. They are specialists in identifying and brokering deals for residential and social housing developments for a variety of investors – including housing associations, pension funds, to house builders & high net worth individuals.
They have been approached to take on the role of Employers Agent and Managing Agent on a variety of new sites. This is a strategically important step for them, and we are looking to recruit a Commercial Director level candidate to lead, grow, and develop the new arm of the business. This is a potentially career-defining opportunity for the right individual to join a business right at the start of its growth curve.
What the Role will Involve:
Two key parts of the role, being the EA, and commercially looking to build the business to drive growth.
The successful candidate will assume responsibility for the site as soon as the site has been purchased, with this role having responsibility for pre and post contract phases.
EA responsibilities:
* Act as Employer’s Agent on live residential developments from initial appointment through to PC.
* Manage pre- and post-contract stages: cost planning, build contract negotiation, construction programmes and reporting.
* Prepare and review Employers’ Requirements, development agreements, and funding drawdowns.
* Assist in communications between client, contractor, and design teams.
* Oversee progress, change control, and financial management across multiple sites.
* Support the integration of AI-driven monitoring and reporting tools as part of BB’s forward-thinking service model.

* Market mapping, and business development.
What we are looking for in the Successful Candidate:
* Ideally MRICS qualified, although this isn't essential.
* Experience as a QS & EA on residential developments.
* Contractual expert – JCT design and build contracts.
* Project management skills – managing and chasing a variety of external stakeholders.
* Confident communicator – from site teams through to directors of large investment funds.
* Commercially aware.
* Someone who is driven and wants to grow a successful business, this is a leap and there is a risk to joining a small company, but there is a strong pipeline of work already, with more to come.
What we Can offer the successful Candidate:
* A potentially career-finishing opportunity to join a business right at the start of its growth curve.
* Equity in the business, based on commercial growth, and the development of the division.
