We’re looking for an experienced Development Manager, with a demonstrable track record of securing planning for complex Central London mixed-use developments, to shape our schemes, build relationships with joint venture partners, and coordinate consultant teams to drive our London zones 1-3 projects forward. We’re expanding because our healthy land pipeline and growing reputation means we’re optimistic about the future. And when you get here, you’ll be becoming part of a relentless culture where we’re constantly reviewing, refining, sharing, and getting better.
Ours is a high-performance culture. High performance in this role means that we deliver great results for our joint venture - those partners love working with us and want to do so again and again. You’ll play a key role in that, building relationships with local authority and RP stakeholders and measuring your success via the feedback we get from them regularly.
You’ll be working right at the front end - involved in acquiring new land opportunities, delivering great planning permissions, and working in lockstep with our construction teams. Our is an integrated model where our teams are unusually collaborative, and our work is truly knitted together early on. Hence, a super collaborative mindset and ability to build real relationships is key here.
As well as having previous experience in residential development (ideally in London) and being hands-on with cashflows and appraisals, you’ll need the ability to work nimbly, build strong relationships, and learn fast. Things move quickly when you’re focused on pursuing better, differently, and you’re in a team of 15+ people that cares as much as this one does. The team overall is led by Marcus Bate. He’s our Partnerships and Communities Director, and his title tells you all you need to know about how we approach development – always in partnership, and always thinking community-first.
This is a culture where you’ll be giving and getting feedback from day one, because we think it’s the fastest way to learn and to build trust. We want to be challenged by you, too – we hate unnecessary hierarchy and “my way or the highway” has no place here.
So, if shaping London’s communities, in partnership, appeals to you and you can see yourself growing in an environment where you’ll love the work and love who you’re becoming as you do it - apply now!
Mount Anvil
What we do: We’ve worked in partnership for 31 years to create outstanding places in London. We’re growing, with our construction turnover doubling, and with a pipeline of new projects where we’re raring to get started and make a difference.
Why we’re here: We’re here to pursue better, differently.
Better: One of The Sunday Times’ “100 Best Small Companies to Work For” for over a decade, winner of multiple Pride In The Job and WhatHouse awards for our people and the quality of our homes, and proud to have the nation’s best site in our ranks (winning the highest possible marks across the Considerate Constructors Scheme’s five areas – the first site ever to do so in 22 years of the CCS).
Differently: Our culture is unusual. Different means more transparent with information. More direct with feedback that helps us all grow. More rigorous about setting goals, then giving more freedom to go and achieve them. It’s definitely not for everyone. We don’t hire know-it-alls, we hire “learn-it-alls”. As our CEO, Killian, says: “We work hard to find people who thrive on context and responsibility, rather than rules and procedures. We then work like owner managers, not a leader and a load of helpers.”
Private medical insurance for you and your family through Vitality (including discounts on spa breaks, cinema tickets, and your food shopping, free Starbucks, 50% off Virgin Active Membership, and more).
Income Protection Insurance to help you cope financially if you’re unable to work due to illness or injury, Life Assurance equivalent to four times your salary, your annual leave & Bank Holidays, enhanced maternity and paternity leave and workplace nursery salary sacrifice, allowing you to save tax and NI on monthly nursery fees.
We think the best benefit of being here is the learning culture and the ability to make a real difference – we dislike hierarchy and politics, and “not my job” isn’t in our vernacular. Which means if you really care about raising the bar and really want to feel connected to the end product, as opposed to like a cog in a big machine, this could be the place for you to grow your career.
