Given the scale and diversity of our project portfolio, we're looking for leaders who are flexible and open to working across different locations throughout the UK, bringing their expertise where it can make the greatest impact.
We are currently looking for Senior Design Managers who will be responsible for managing the design process and design team on a project, from enquiry through to submission of the bid, PCSA stage, and the ongoing management of all construction stage design-related issues through to project completion and handover. We are particularly looking for a candidate with healthcare experience.
