You'll have exposure to senior management, project delivery and commercial teams, while being given the autonomy to develop the Design Management function across your projects. The business has a very collaborative, personal culture, with a strong emphasis on teamwork and long-term relationships. They are continuing to grow and have a clear pipeline of work, making this a particularly good time to join. If you're an architect or architectural professional who feels you've reached the point where you want to move beyond purely design-focused work and take ownership of the construction, coordination and delivery side of projects, this could be a very good next step. If you're an architectural professional looking to make the move into main contractor-side Design Management, we'd be keen to speak with you.
