Suffolk, United Kingdom Taylor Woodrow Full time

The Design Manager will play a vital role in Taylor Woodrow's Suffolk project, a significant part of Britain's transition to renewable energy and Net Zero. This project involves earth moving operations, reinforced concrete works, and steel framed superstructures to deliver balanced renewable power into the National Grid.

As Design Manager, you will be responsible for managing the Designers and coordinating design activities across the project. This role can be based in either Suffolk or Watford, with regular site visits.

The key duties of this Design Manager role include:

  • Managing permanent works design to achieve delivery of cost-effective and compliant Contractor's design within agreed timescales and fee budgets.
  • Implementing design management procedures to comply with ISO 9001 design requirements and Client requirements for management of contractor's design specified in the Contract.
  • Developing and revising the Design Management Plan periodically.
  • Tracking and controlling design changes using the Design Manager's Toolkit.
  • Facilitating technical coordination between disciplines on site.
  • Reviewing design deliverables to ensure required Quality is achieved, particularly with respect to:
    • Compliance with Client's requirements as defined in the main contract;
    • Application of relevant British Standards and sector or Client-specific standards;
    • Production team requirements for buildability (cost, programme, safety, repeatability, design for offsite manufacture).
  • Ensuring compliance with CDM regulations as they apply to design.
  • Overseeing the fulfilment of Principal Designer, Common Safety Method, and Engineering Safety Management functions.
  • Challenging Work-in-Progress design and facilitating development of design that eliminates or mitigates construction health and safety risk.
  • Ensuring the lead designer maintains the Design Decision Register.
  • Monitoring cost and schedule performance of sub-contracted designers using EPPR proforma from Design Manager's Toolkit (or project-specific EVM based pro-forma).
  • Reviewing subcontracted designers' applications for payment and authorising as appropriate.

The successful Design Manager candidate will have:

  • A formal qualification in a civil engineering or construction related subject.
  • A CSCS card.
  • Previous experience managing design activities on a major infrastructure project.
  • CEng status is advantageous but not essential.
