Associate Director CDM

Associate Director CDM Principal Designer

I'm working exclusively with a well-established, privately owned, small multidisciplinary consultancy that is looking to appoint an Associate Director, CDM Principal Designer to play a pivotal role in the next stage of its growth.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced CDM professional who enjoys building client relationships as much as delivering technical excellence. The business has an outstanding reputation, a collaborative culture, and ambitious growth plans, making this an ideal move for someone looking to influence the direction of a consultancy rather than simply be another number.

The Role

As Associate Director, you'll take ownership of a diverse portfolio of projects while helping to grow and develop the CDM service offering. You'll work closely with the senior leadership team, supporting strategic growth through existing relationships, networking and identifying new business opportunities.

This role would suit someone who already has a strong industry presence and is confident developing long-term client partnerships.

Responsibilities

• Deliver the Principal Designer role across a wide range of construction projects.
• Manage and develop key client relationships.
• Generate new business opportunities through your existing network and industry contacts.
• Build and manage junior members of the CDM team.
• Contribute to the wider business strategy and future growth of the consultancy.

About You

• Extensive experience working as a CDM Principal Designer.
• Strong knowledge of the CDM Regulations 2015 and current industry best practice.
• Commercially minded with excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
• Chartered membership of a relevant professional body is desirable but not essential.
• An established network of clients and professional contacts, with a proven ability to win and retain work.

What's on Offer

• A genuine leadership position with the opportunity to shape and grow a successful business.
• The autonomy to make commercial decisions & influence the direction of the team.
• A collaborative, entrepreneurial environment where your ideas will be valued.
• Competitive salary up to 80,000 + bonus and benefits package.
