️ DESIGN MANAGER | LONDON
Greater London / Wembley
Major Residential & Affordable Housing Projects
Permanent
Are you a Design Manager with an architecture or architectural technology background who enjoys turning design intent into something that can actually be built?
I’m looking to speak with experienced Design Managers for a contractor-side, design-to-delivery opportunity across major London residential schemes.
This is not a BIM-only or MEP Design Manager role. The focus is on architecture-led, multidisciplinary design management from Stage 3 through Stage 4 / Stage 5 and into construction.
️ What you’ll be involved in
Managing architects, consultants and specialist designers
Driving Stage 4 / Stage 5 technical design
Coordinating architecture, structure, facade, fire and MEP
Reviewing drawings for buildability and compliance
Managing RFIs, technical submissions and design changes
BIM / Revit / Navisworks coordination
Supporting procurement and specialist design packages
Value engineering and resolving technical risks
Staying close to site through construction and handover
What we’re looking for
✔️ Architecture / Architectural Technology background
✔️ Contractor-side Design Management experience
✔️ Residential, affordable housing or mixed-use project experience
✔️ Strong Stage 3 / 4 / 5 technical coordination
✔️ Good understanding of facades, fire, structure and MEP interfaces
✔️ Strong Building Regulations and buildability knowledge
✔️ Confidence managing consultants and challenging design information
⭐ Big advantage if you have experience with:
Higher-Risk Buildings
Building Safety Act / BSR
🚪 Gateway processes
🧵 Golden Thread information
Multi-storey residential schemes
If you’ve moved from architecture into contractor-side design management and want real ownership over what gets delivered on site, I’d love to hear from you.
