Fancy building your career in a role that offers genuine responsibility, variety and the opportunity to enjoy everything that comes with living outside London?

n

n

I'm currently working on behalf of a well-established private property business that is looking to appoint a Development Project Manager to join its growing property team in East Anglia.

n

n

This could be a particularly exciting opportunity for someone currently based in London or the South East who is considering a move to a different environment, without compromising on the quality, variety or scope of their career.

n

n

East Anglia offers an excellent lifestyle, with beautiful countryside and coastline, thriving market towns and easy access back into London when needed. More importantly, this is a genuinely interesting client-side role offering exposure across the full development lifecycle and the opportunity to work closely with senior decision-makers.

n

n

The role will include:

n

    n

  • Managing development and construction projects from planning through to delivery
  • n

  • Discharging planning conditions and implementing consents
  • n

  • Appointing and managing multidisciplinary consultant teams
  • n

  • Preparing development appraisals, CAPEX papers and financial reporting
  • n

  • Managing project budgets, cashflow and programme
  • n

  • Supporting strategic land promotion and planning initiatives
  • n

  • Working closely with senior leadership on investment, development and asset enhancement opportunities
  • n

n

n

I'm keen to speak with individuals with experience in Development Management, Project Management, or a combination of both, ideally gained within a developer, landed estate, property company or consultancy.

n

n

The ideal candidate will have:

n

    n

  • MRICS, or be working towards chartership
  • n

  • Strong project delivery experience
  • n

  • Planning and development knowledge
  • n

  • Excellent commercial awareness
  • n

  • Experience managing consultants and multiple stakeholders
  • n

  • The confidence to work autonomously and influence decision-making
  • n

n

n

This is a varied role offering genuine long-term career development, significant exposure and the opportunity to help shape and deliver a diverse portfolio of projects within a collaborative, entrepreneurial environment.

n

n

If you're considering a move to East Anglia and would like a role where you can continue to develop your career while enjoying a different pace and quality of life, I'd love to have a confidential conversation.

n

n

Please get in touch or send me a direct message.
