Location: Mayfair, London
At BECK London, we deliver exceptional luxury interiors through precision, craftsmanship, and an uncompromising attention to detail.
Working across some of London’s most prestigious hospitality, residential, and high-end interior projects, we bring together design excellence, technical expertise, and exceptional project delivery.
We are looking for an experienced Design Manager to join our team and manage the design process across complex and detail-driven projects.
The Role
Reporting to the Senior Design Lead, you will take ownership of the day-to-day management and coordination of design from pre-construction through to delivery.
Working closely with clients, architects, interior designers, consultants, specialist subcontractors, and our internal project teams, you will ensure design information is fully coordinated, technically compliant, buildable, and aligned with programme, cost, and quality requirements.
Key Responsibilities
- Managing and coordinating the design process across all project stages.
- Acting as a key interface between clients, consultants, specialist subcontractors, and project teams.
- Reviewing and coordinating design information to ensure accuracy, quality, buildability, and design intent.
- Leading design workshops, technical reviews, and coordination meetings.
- Managing design programmes, information requirements, risks, clashes, and change control.
- Identifying and developing practical solutions to complex design and technical challenges.
- Supporting value-engineering opportunities without compromising design intent or quality.
- Ensuring compliance with UK Building Regulations, statutory requirements, planning conditions, and project-specific requirements.
- Supporting the Senior Design Lead with design strategy and technical coordination.
- Maintaining the professionalism, discretion, and attention to detail expected when working on high-profile luxury projects.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
