What you'll be doing?
This team is responsible for identifying and sourcing the best locations for new developments. It’s fast moving and, in today’s climate, extremely competitive and commercial in its focus.
While we need to be commercial and competitive in bidding for sought-after land, we also need to be imaginative in identifying other possibilities – such as land that currently doesn’t have planning permission. It’s a complex area of our work, under intense commercial scrutiny and pressure. It’s vital and far-reaching, requiring entrepreneurial and imaginative thinking, risk assessment, and relationship-building skills.
Reporting to the Senior Land Manager or Development Director, you will assist in securing an adequate land bank to meet business needs and targets.
You Will be Expected To
* Identify potential development opportunities through methods like examining statutory development plans, housing land audits, potential change of uses, liaising with agents, and utilizing an extensive contact base.
* Manage site acquisition processes from identification, diligence, offer, contract, purchase, planning, to pre-start on acquired sites.
* Liaise with relevant divisional departments (e.g., Sales/Technical) and external consultants during land appraisal, bidding, and planning processes.
* Monitor the land database, including site registration, development plans, and offers submitted.

* Assist the Development Director on major projects and other duties as required.
* Provide timely and accurate information to support the production of Land Packs for approval.
