Our client is seeking experienced Pre-Construction Managers to lead multi-disciplinary design and engineering teams across major projects. This role will ensure the successful transition from pre-construction through to delivery, driving technical assurance, buildability, and commercial efficiency.
You will work closely with design, commercial, and delivery teams to ensure solutions are practical, cost-effective, compliant, and aligned with programme requirements. Strong leadership, stakeholder management, and problem-solving skills are key to ensuring seamless project execution.

* Provide delivery input into project schedules and quality plans
* Support development of risk registers and project HSQE documentation
* Ensure a smooth design-to-construction handover process
* Resolve design and coordination issues throughout the construction cycle
* Ensure design intent and quality standards are maintained
* Capture lessons learned to inform continuous improvement
Candidate Profile
Our client is looking for individuals with strong technical grounding, commercial awareness, and proven leadership capability within complex project environments. Professional accreditation is encouraged; senior candidates should already be chartered or actively working toward it.
