We are working with a regional contractor based in Newbury for a Design Manager to join the team.
They are an established contractor across the South looking to grow their workload through selective tendering with a mix of repeat business for happy previous clients alongside opportunities with new targeted clients, projects, and marketplaces through negotiation, 2 stage tendering, and competitive bids after being appointed to several new framework agreements.
Typical projects range from GBP5 to GBP30 million, with a majority being negotiated or 2 stage schemes. They have a great track record in delivering schools, NHS, healthcare, student, hotels, leisure, retail, care home schemes, and residential schemes including multi-unit developments and flats. They are also looking at local authority opportunities as well as education and healthcare developments through frameworks.
The role involves taking full ownership of all design-related work from tender stages, through bid stages, and out to site, being involved through to project completion. You will immediately help the delivery teams and supply chains deliver the schemes while also getting involved with the preconstruction teams on new opportunities. This typically involves working with the estimating and bid team, a commercial and delivery/operational project manager, and one of the directors to build a team to fully explore and manage the bid through PQQ, tender, contract award, construction, and delivery. They have excellent relationships with local authorities, specialist consultants, architectural practices, subcontractors, and supply chain members, enabling them to challenge and implement design changes and find alternative solutions to increase quality, speed, and improve the buildability of the projects.
Candidates should have experience of BIM and BREEAM, have worked for a main or regional contractor on design and build schemes, and be able to take full control of critical aspects of a scheme including groundworks, building services, and envelope packages.
They have excellent pre-construction, delivery, and commercial teams and solid hands-on leadership at a local level. Now would be an excellent time to join a growing business, so to find out more, please apply today.
