Commercial Manager.

Development and Delivery | London.

Residential Development.

I am partnering with a major, multi-office London based developer to appoint a Commercial Manager as the business enters an exciting new phase of growth. Following a recent acquisition, the company is well capitalised, highly active in the market and preparing to accelerate both acquisitions and delivery across its London portfolio.

With a substantial pipeline of residential-led mixed use projects and large urban regeneration schemes, this is an excellent opportunity to join a developer that has both the ambition and the resources to deliver at scale.

The Role

As Commercial Manager, you will provide commercial leadership ensuring that cost, value and risk are managed effectively from early feasibility through to completion. You will also help to stabilise and improve areas of the programme where historic subcontractor performance or procurement gaps have created localised commercial pressures.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Leading commercial management activities from pre-acquisition through delivery.
  • Preparing and managing cost plans, procurement strategies, tender processes and contract negotiations.
  • Working closely with Development, Technical and Delivery teams to ensure consistent commercial oversight across a varied and growing pipeline.
  • Supporting the Acquisitions team through cost due diligence and analysis of commercial risk and opportunity.
  • Managing external consultants, including QS and project management teams, to ensure robust, value-driven outcomes.
  • Maintaining accurate reporting, forecasting and commercial controls across all projects.
  • Strengthening procurement discipline across subcontract packages, ensuring clear scope definition and coordination to prevent design gaps and downstream commercial issues.

What They Are Looking For

  • Proven commercial experience within a developer or contractor environment.
  • Strong understanding of commercial and contractual matters relating to residential or mixed-use development.
  • Confidence in managing consultant teams and influencing internal stakeholders.
  • A proactive and commercially minded approach suited to a business experiencing significant growth.
  • Applications from Senior Quantity Surveyors seeking a step up into a Commercial Manager role are welcomed.

Why Join Them?

This developer is at a pivotal moment. The recent acquisition has brought a major capital injection, a renewed strategic focus and the capacity to deliver a substantial pipeline across London. The culture is collaborative, professional and driven, with clear opportunities for progression as the business grows.

If you are a commercial professional seeking a role where you can contribute meaningfully to one of London's most active development pipelines, I would welcome a confidential conversation.

Please apply or contact Dan Petrie for more information.
