The University of Oxford is seeking to appoint a Development Manager within the Estates Capital Projects team.
The University of Oxford aims to lead the world in research and education for the benefit of society both in the UK and globally. Oxford’s researchers engage with academic, commercial and cultural partners across the world to stimulate high-quality research and enable innovation through a broad range of social, policy and economic impacts.
The University’s buildings and estate are not only necessary for our academic work; they also contribute to Oxford’s reputation as a city of learning, heritage and culture. They form a vital part of the rich architecture of the city and provide a beautiful environment for visitors and Oxford residents, as well as University staff and students.
Oxford has an extraordinary estates capital programme of circa £160m annually (total programme is up to £1.0 billion) including many large-scale and high-profile projects emanating from the University’s estate strategy. The Development Manager will lead a diverse portfolio capital projects, with a specific remit for overseeing the capital programme for the Medical Sciences Division (MSD), with a current value exceeding £250m. Your duties will include leading the management, monitoring, and coordination of the MSD capital project programme, ensuring projects are delivered efficiently, on time, and in compliance with legislation and University governance.
The successful candidate will possess proven experience of leading the development and delivery of a complex portfolio of project ranging from small-scale improvement schemes to major projects. Delivery-focused and with a high degree of commercial acumen, you will be able to demonstrate a proven track record in ensuring quality, value for money across a diverse range of capital projects. Experience of working on projects to deliver research, clinical and academic facilities would be advantageous although not essential.
As a Development Manager in a client-side role, you will be adept working successfully with delivery partners, fostering a positive, collaborative and high-performance culture. The role calls for an individual that is adept at stakeholder management, given the vast array of internal and external stakeholders involved in the delivery of projects across the Oxford estate.
The University offers a compelling benefits package that includes 30 days of annual leave (excluding public holidays) and hybrid working arrangements to promote a healthy work-life balance. Employees have access to extensive personal and professional development opportunities, an excellent contributory pension scheme, life cover, salary sacrifice, subsidised sports centre membership and cycle loan schemes. Additionally, the package offers supportive childcare services and generous family leave, ensuring comprehensive support for employees' well-being and family needs.
