Head of Development

Overview

Head of Real Estate Recruitment @ COREcruitment Ltd - Property, Sustainability, CRES, Facilities, Construction, Development

Role : Head of Development

Sector : Construction

Location : London + Europe

Salary : Up to £100,000

I am very excited to be working on this newly created role for a fast-growing client. I am keen to speak with Head of Development candidates who have delivered construction projects in both the UK and Europe.

The group properties are unique and diverse, often with historical significance and complex structural requirements. The mainstay of the role will be refurbishments, upgrades and extensions within existing sites, including functional spaces, accommodation, leisure and hospitality facilities. Standards are high, and the environments being created will be subject to a thorough process.

About you

You will be an excellent communicator and collaborator with experience of delivering construction projects in both the UK and in the EU.

You will be adept at working with Architects, Planners, Project Management teams and Engineers to create and deliver the programme of works on time, on budget and to exacting standards. Ideally you will have worked on both small upgrade works and large-scale, complex construction projects, and will be adept at cost management, tender process and financial reporting. Experience of working with Private Equity backed businesses would be an advantage, along with being comfortable working with a small agile team. On occasion, projects may be undertaken on ‘live sites’, so a good understanding of the compliance around that is needed. This role reaches into development in Europe, so the ability and willingness to travel is a must.

Key Responsibilities

• Ensure legal compliance, due diligence, and risk management for all property-related activities.
• Collaborate with internal and external stakeholders, from architects to local authorities.
• Be involved right from acquisitions of new sites through to completion.
• Advise on scope of works, specifications and costing.
• Ensure all projects uphold the highest standards of health, safety, environmental management, and sustainability.
• Take responsibility for all pre-con activities and continue to advise operations teams on the long-term upkeep of sites.
• Lead on budget management, reporting, and continuous improvement of development policies.
• Implement supply chain policies and compliance with industry best practices, including community relations and considerate construction.
