Job Description

I’m currently working with a highly respected and well-established residential contractor to recruit a Design Manager for their growing technical team. The role would suit an established Design Manager with experience in construction or residential development, but I would also be keen to speak with talented architects who are looking to transition into design management and develop their career within a contractor environment.

With a strong pipeline of projects and a commitment to quality, innovation, and sustainability, this organisation offers the opportunity to play a key role in the successful delivery of a diverse range of residential developments.

- Leading design coordination meetings with consultants, technical specialists, and internal stakeholders.
- Reviewing drawings, specifications, and technical information to identify risks, clashes, and opportunities for improvement.
- Ensuring compliance with planning conditions, building regulations, statutory requirements, and project specifications.
- Supporting the delivery of buildable, cost-effective design solutions through value engineering and collaborative problem-solving.
- Monitoring design progress to ensure information is issued accurately and in line with project programmes.
- Working closely with construction, commercial, and technical teams to support successful project delivery.
- Driving best practice, innovation, and continuous improvement throughout the design process.

Requirements:
- Experience within a Design Manager or similar role.
- Alternatively, a background in architecture with a desire to move into a design management.
- Strong understanding of construction detailing, technical design, and buildability.
- Knowledge of current building regulations and residential construction standards.
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
- Proactive, organised, and capable of managing multiple priorities simultaneously.
- Ability to work collaboratively within multidisciplinary project teams.

On offer:
- Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
- Opportunity to join a well-established and highly regarded residential contractor.
- Strong commitment to professional development and career progression.
