Why Join?
Are you ready to take ownership of the design management process on major re-cladding projects in London? This is a rare opportunity to step into a pivotal role with a well-established main contractor that's been a trusted name in the façade and envelope industry for over 50 years.
As Design Manager, you'll play a central part in managing and improving how design processes are delivered across re-cladding schemes. You'll be joining at an exciting stage of growth, with the opportunity to shape a department, create new procedures, and influence the way projects are delivered from a technical and compliance perspective.
As a Design Manager you'll be working from
7:30am - 5:00pm, primarily site-based with some time spent in the office. This role offers hands-on project exposure and the chance to grow with a stable, values-driven business that continues to invest in its people and its future.
Your Role As a Design Manager Will Include
- Overseeing and managing the façade design process for remedial re-cladding works (no design creation involved)
- Reviewing and checking drawings for compliance, buildability, and accuracy
- Liaising with sub-contractors, consultants, and internal teams to ensure seamless delivery
- Finding alternative technical solutions when required
The Successful Design Manager Will Need
- Proven background in façade or cladding design management within the UK contracting environment
- Experience managing the design process on refurbishment or re-cladding projects
- Ability to coordinate between consultants, site teams, and subcontractors
- Comfortable working from site and dealing with live project environments
- Strong understanding of AutoCAD and design documentation
