Chessington, Greater London, United Kingdom Lidl GB Full time

Key Responsibilities


As a Pre-Construction Commercial Manager, you will be responsible for tendering, appointing, and managing construction projects at a national level. This will involve building and maintaining effective working relationships with external contractors, consultants, and key contacts.


You will also be responsible for liaising with the stores design team to ensure collaborative development and efficient team working. Additionally, you will monitor the quality of appointed national projects through KPI reporting and site visits.


Other key responsibilities include developing cost plans, identifying and delivering opportunities for cost savings and additional cost mitigation. You will also support regional teams in the execution of projects through regular meetings, reports, and guidance to colleagues.


Furthermore, you will manage supplier agreements and conduct regular reviews of operating procedures, making recommendations for improvement. You will also deliver effective business communications through review, reporting, briefings, presenting in team meetings, and creating executive summaries as and when appropriate.


Additionally, you will update national procedures, policies, and processes, ensuring that these are effectively communicated and implemented correctly. You will also present projects and plans in front of large audiences.


Finally, you will ensure that all matters that may impact the smooth running of the build are reported to senior management and fixed immediately.

Requirements


To be successful in this role, you will need to have a graduate degree in Quantity Surveying, Civil Engineering, or Construction Management. You will also need to be self-motivated and ambitious to develop and progress your career.


Other requirements include exposure to contract management, the pre-construction phase, or site experience, although this is not essential. You will also need to have sound commercial knowledge with an excellent eye for detail.


You will need to be able to project manage multiple projects concurrently and handle conflicting deadlines. Additionally, you will need to have proven negotiation, organisational, and problem-solving skills.


Clear and effective communication skills are also essential, as is the ability to work within a team and on your own. You will also need to have knowledge of project management and be comfortable working in a multi-project environment.


Finally, you will need to have strong Microsoft Office skills and hold a full driving licence.
