We're looking for a proven leader of large-scale development or infrastructure projects, with a strong track record of delivery in complex, multi-stakeholder environments. Adept at leading teams and managing supply chains, you balance strategic vision with hands-on commercial and technical oversight.

You'll bring:

  • Experience of delivering complex property development schemes (£150m+) from inception to completion.
  • A deep understanding of construction, planning, design and development processes.
  • A collaborative leadership style that inspires performance across partners and disciplines.
  • Professional accreditation (RICS, MCIOB, MICE or equivalent).
