Job Description:
Job Title: Design Manager
Location: Swindon
Job Type: Permanent, Full Time
We're looking for a talented and experienced person to join our team in Swindon and to make a positive impact within our growing business. Managing the design process from pre-construction through to and including the construction phase for projects up to £30m.
The Company
Our business began in 1892. Since then, we’ve developed our crafts to realize any vision. We deliver exceptional outcomes on a variety of design & build, new-build, restoration & refurbishment projects, from turnkey maintenance services to complex schemes up to £30m.
Beard was founded on a simple idea – to build ambitious spaces. Today, that’s paired with the promise of prompt and faultless delivery. We understand how these concepts are brought to life by people living well and working with purpose. Through learning, performing, and connecting. People are at the heart of all we do. But serving them fully requires courage to challenge, think differently, and act differently.
Job Purpose
Managing the design process from the pre-construction stage to provide compliant, accurate, and timely design information using experience, knowledge, and technical expertise.
Responsibilities include:
* Planning all aspects of the project, identifying challenges, and bringing imaginative and cost-effective solutions.
* Working within current legislation, standards, and codes of practice.
* Eliminating health, safety, and financial risks during construction.
* Ensuring a steady flow of quality information to maintain project pace.
* Building solid relationships with stakeholders through open and clear dialogue.
Experience required:
* Understanding of traditional construction and Design & Build (D&B).
* Thorough understanding of CDM regulations.
* Knowledge of software such as BIM and 4Projects.
Ideal candidate qualities:
* Ability to work well independently and as part of a team.
* Effective communication skills at all levels.
* Knowledge of various procurement methods, including frameworks, negotiated, and two-stage tenders.
* Benefits include discretionary annual bonus, paid sick leave (after qualifying period), pension contributions (up to 7.5%), cash plan, salary extras platform, and training & development opportunities.
If this role appeals to you, we look forward to receiving your application.
By applying, you agree to share your information with Beard Construction via the BuildMyTalent platform.
