Join a well-established design & build contractor delivering technically complex commercial and self-storage schemes across London and the South East.

You'll take full ownership of design coordination and BREEAM compliance across multiple live projects from consultant appointments through to certification and handover.

This is a standalone role with real responsibility from day one, working closely with the Construction Director and project delivery teams as the company continues to grow.

• Strong understanding of BREEAM procedures and sustainability coordination
• Background in light industrial, commercial, or self-storage projects
• Comfortable working independently in a fast-paced environment
• Technically strong, well-organised, and confident communicating with design teams, clients, and authorities

The Company
This is a long-established design & build contractor based in Hertfordshire, with projects across London and the surrounding counties. They specialise in the delivery of self-storage, commercial, and mixed-use developments, combining practical construction expertise with strong technical and design capability.

With several new schemes kicking off this is an excellent time to join a hands-on, director-led business that values autonomy, initiative, and quality delivery.

Package
• Competitive Salary
• Performance-linked bonus scheme
• Contributory pension and health plan
• 21 days holiday + bank holidays (3 reserved for Christmas)
• Office-based (Hatfield) with site visits 12 times per month (expenses covered)
