Commercial Workplace

We're looking for three exceptional Senior Preconstruction Managers to join a market-leading design & build business delivering complex, design-led environments across London and the South East who are organically going through another growth phase.

These are high-impact positions for experienced professionals who can lead the front end of projects - shaping design, strategy, and commercial outcomes from RIBA Stage 2/3 through to site handover.

You'll be the face of the business during the bid and preconstruction phase: building relationships, managing cost plans, and steering design and delivery strategy for blue-chip clients and institutions.

Lead the preconstruction process on multiple fast-track or complex D&B projects (£5m-£50m+).

Manage bid strategy, design coordination, programming, and cost control from concept to contract.

Collaborate with design, commercial, and delivery teams to produce fully coordinated proposals.

Present schemes and commercial submissions with confidence and clarity to clients and consultants.

Challenge and develop design solutions to optimise aesthetics, cost, and buildability.

Maintain and grow key client relationships - representing the business at the highest level.

Support and mentor Bid Managers, Designers, and Estimators through the process.

Proven track record leading preconstruction or design management within D&B or main contracting.

Deep technical understanding of construction detailing, sequencing, and cost.

Confident presenter with commercial gravitas and strong client engagement skills.

Adept at managing multiple bids and deadlines under pressure.

Highly articulate and comfortable in both boardroom and site environments.

Forward-thinking, collaborative, and driven to raise standards across every project.

You'll join a business renowned for its design excellence and delivery precision - where preconstruction drives the entire process. These roles are built for heavyweights who want to shape high-value projects, influence creative direction, and work alongside the best in the industry.
