Description:
Senior Design Manager – East Midlands
£85k–£95k + package | Tier 1 Main Contractor | £100m+ Project
A genuinely exciting opportunity for a Senior Design Manager to join a leading Tier 1 contractor on one of the most prestigious projects currently being delivered in the East Midlands.
Based just north of Nottingham, this is a £100m+ project with a significant 12-month pre-construction period, giving you the opportunity to get involved from the outset and take a leading role in shaping the project before it moves into delivery.
You’ll be responsible for leading the design function, working closely with the client, consultants and wider project team, with a team of Design Managers working beneath you.
The role:
* Lead the design management function through pre-construction and delivery
* Manage and develop a team of Design Managers
* Take ownership of the design programme, strategy and delivery
* Coordinate consultants, subcontractors and the wider project team
* Manage design information, approvals, changes and technical queries
* Drive design coordination and ensure information is delivered in line with the programme
* Work closely with Commercial, Planning and Construction teams
* Challenge design proposals around buildability, programme and cost
* Lead design meetings and report into senior project leadership
* Support the project from pre-construction through to completion
About you:
* Experienced Senior Design Manager / Design Manager with experience on major projects
* Strong main contractor background, ideally Tier 1
* Previous experience managing a design team
* Comfortable working through complex pre-construction and into delivery
* Strong technically, commercially aware and confident dealing with clients and consultants
* A natural leader who can take ownership and drive a project forward
This is a high-profile project with a long pre-construction runway, so it would suit someone who wants to be involved early, lead a team and ultimately help deliver a major project from the ground up.
