* Manage design programmes and schedules to align with project timelines
* Lead design meetings with contractors, suppliers, and client consultants
* Attend regular site and client meetings to ensure smooth delivery
* Prepare and collate designer risk assessments in line with CDM
What We’re Looking For:

* Proficiency in Revit and technical drawing production
* Comfortable leading coordination with contractors and design teams
* Knowledge of UK building regulations and CDM responsibilities
* Strong organisational and communication skills
* Degree in Architecture, Interior Architecture, or similar is preferred
The Offer:
* Competitive salary up to £100,000 depending on experience
