Design Manager

Design Manager / Senior Design Manager
Northern Home Counties (Hybrid)

A major healthcare project is moving into pre construction, and we're looking for a Design Manager or Senior Design Manager with relevant sector experience to take a lead role in driving design quality, coordination and technical delivery.

This role offers hybrid working and a salary of 65,000 - 95,000 plus package for the right person.

The Opportunity
You'll join an established design and technical team delivering complex, multi stakeholder projects. The environment is structured, fast paced and well supported, with a strong pipeline of healthcare?led work over the coming years.
The position suits someone who enjoys solving problems early, building strong relationships with clinical planners, consultants and supply chain partners, and ensuring the design develops safely, compliantly and efficiently.

What We're Looking For

• Proven experience delivering healthcare projects
• Open to both Design Managers and Senior Design Managers who can commute easily to the northern home counties
• Experience in healthcare, education or leisure projects is strongly preferred due to the pipeline (Candidates with primarily high density residential experience may not be the right fit for this role)
• Strong coordination skills with the ability to lead meetings, challenge design information and manage risk
• Ability to work closely with commercial, planning and production teams to ensure design aligns with programme and budget
• Confident managing consultants, navigating technical constraints and resolving issues quickly
• Someone who enjoys ownership, responsibility and driving high quality design outcomes

Why This Role Stands Out

• Opportunity to work on a significant healthcare scheme with high technical value
• Supportive, established team with long term project security
• Hybrid working arrangement with regular site and office collaboration
• Clear progression opportunities for the right individual
