Trainee/ Assistant Design Coordinator
Based in the Head Office in Hertfordshire | Site visits in London (1–2 days/week)
Looking to step into the world of design coordination but not quite sure where to begin? This is an exciting opportunity for someone with a foundational understanding of design or MEP who’s ready to grow and learn in a hands-on, fast-paced environment.
We’re supporting a well-established contractor in their search for a Junior / Trainee Assistant Design Coordinator to work closely with their Design and Project teams across London projects. This role is ideal for someone who sits between an apprentice and a full-blown Assistant Design Coordinator or Assistant Design Manager – someone green but switched-on, eager to learn and able to grow into the role with the right support.
What you’ll be doing:
* Shadow and support the Design Manager and wider team
* Help coordinate design information between consultants, subcontractors and site teams
* Attend design meetings and contribute to issue resolution
* Assist with document tracking, design queries and drawing reviews
* Gain experience on both general construction and MEP-focused packages
What we’re looking for:
* A junior candidate with some exposure to construction or design (could be from education, work placement or similar)
* A proactive attitude and willingness to ask questions and learn
* Comfortable based in the Hertfordshire head office, with site visits to London once or twice a week
* Confident, reliable, and keen to carve a long-term path in design coordination
The Offer:
* £25,000 – £35,000 depending on experience
* Travel expenses covered for site visits
* Real opportunity to grow within the business and take on more responsibility over time
* Immediate start available
If you're someone with the drive to learn and a genuine interest in building your career in design coordination, this is a fantastic opportunity to get your foot in the door with a supportive team and clear development path.
