This is an exciting opportunity to work on high-profile projects across multiple sectors, including residential housing, logistics, retail, aviation, healthcare, education, advanced manufacturing, data centres, and energy. Our Design Division is at the forefront of harmonising form and function, balancing sustainability, materiality, cost, and constructability. Digitalisation is at the core of our approach, enabling clients and stakeholders to experience designs from concept through delivery. If you're passionate about managing complex design processes and driving excellence, this role offers the chance to make a real impact. Purpose & Scope of the Role As a Design Manager, you'll play a key role in supporting the Senior Management Team in delivering architectural and engineering design services across a diverse portfolio of projects. You will oversee project delivery programmes, manage resource levels, and ensure that all design outputs meet client requirements and deadlines. Your responsibilities will include coordinating project information through structured protocols, managing deliverables in line with agreed programmes, and supporting commercial management activities such as scope variations, contractual notices, and payment applications. You will also establish and manage sub-consultant contracts, monitor project decision and change logs, and maintain accurate records to ensure seamless project execution. This role demands initiative, precision, and a proactive approach to problem-solving, ensuring that every project is delivered to the highest standards. Your Impact in this Position You'll be instrumental in ensuring projects run smoothly, deadlines are met, and client expectations are exceeded.

Beyond software proficiency, you will demonstrate the ability to plan and monitor resources, manage structured project protocols, and oversee the distribution of deliverables in line with agreed programmes. Familiarity with contractual processes, fee claims, and change management will be essential, as you will often be required to identify opportunities for additional scope and justify associated costs and timelines. Your attention to detail and commitment to accuracy will ensure that every aspect of project delivery meets the highest standards. Leadership & Collaboration As a Design Manager, you will be a central figure in coordinating efforts across multiple teams and disciplines. You'll work closely with Project Directors, Finance and Legal teams, and client representatives, ensuring that communication flows seamlessly and decisions are implemented effectively.

Internally, you will contribute to a positive team culture by promoting openness, encouraging collaboration, and supporting colleagues in achieving shared goals. Externally, you will represent the business with professionalism and integrity, reinforcing our reputation as a trusted partner and industry leader.
