Watford
Zunikh
Development manager
Posted: 30 May
Offer description

Cobalt is working with Zunikh, a dynamic multi-sectoral real estate developer renowned for its innovative and community-led approach to building high-quality properties nationwide with a particular focus on London and the South East. With a strong track record of delivering sustainable, design-led residential schemes, Zunikh is carving out a niche as a trusted partner in modern urban regeneration. Their close-knit, forward-thinking team fosters a collaborative culture and offers flexible working, unrivalled opportunities for career progression and the chance to join a growing and already successful business on their extensive growth journey.


Zunikh is a privately-owned developer who deliver high-quality, affordable, and design-conscious residential for-sale schemes, as well as schemes across all sectors. Other current schemes include a 489-bed PBSA development, a 30-acre industrial scheme, and a number of PD schemes. Their developments are often recognised for sustainability, with ESG considerations embedded into project planning from the outset.


Known for creating an inclusive workplace culture that champions personal development and employee wellbeing, they donate 50% of their profits to charity and are driven by a genuine desire to “do good” through the power of the built environment. They are also committed to diversity and inclusion – championing a positive gender balance, neurodiversity, and being disability-positive.


Based in their office in Watford, you will be travelling to sites as needed, on a hybrid basis.

What skills do you need?

* Have experience in a developer, public body or housing association.

* Excellent communication, written and numerate skills.
