An opportunity has arisen for an experienced Development Director to join a well-capitalised, institutionally backed real estate platform, delivering a significant pipeline of living sector schemes across the UK.
This role will take full responsibility for the delivery of c.£450m of residential-led developments over the next three years. Working directly with senior leadership, you will act as the internal lead across multiple projects, overseeing the full construction lifecycle from pre-construction through to practical completion.
The initial portfolio includes a mix of Build to Sell and Build to Rent schemes across key regional locations, alongside a major mixed‑use scheme progressing through planning. You will be responsible for driving programme, managing budgets, and ensuring projects are delivered on time and to a high standard.
Key responsibilities include:
* Leading the delivery of multiple residential‑led schemes through construction to completion
* Managing and coordinating external consultants, contractors and advisors
* Negotiating and executing construction contracts (including PCSA and JCT)
* Overseeing programme, cost control and risk management
* Reporting into senior stakeholders and capital partners on project performance
* Building and maintaining strong relationships across the development and delivery ecosystem
The successful candidate will demonstrate:
* A strong track record delivering residential or living sector developments (BTR, BTS, mixed‑use)
* Experience operating on the developer or fund side, with full lifecycle exposure
* Proven ability to manage multiple stakeholders, including consultants, contractors and partners
* Strong commercial and contractual understanding, particularly across construction procurement
* A hands‑on, accountable approach, with the ability to operate autonomously in a lean environment
This is a high‑impact role within a growing platform, offering the opportunity to take ownership of a substantial pipeline and play a key role in shaping delivery strategy going forward.
