• Attend design meetings, site visits, and liaise with the commercial and construction teams throughout the project lifecycle
  
  

Requirements

• Proven experience as a Design Manager or Senior Design Coordinator within the facade industry
• Strong technical knowledge of façade systems (curtain walling, cladding, glazing etc.)
• Stonework detailing experience would be highly desirable
• Excellent communication and coordination skills with a collaborative approach
• Comfortable working across various project stages and liaising with all key stakeholders
• Ability to be site and head office based in London-based projects, with hybrid working flexibility
  
  

What's On Offer

• Salary in the region of £55,000 - £70,000, depending on experience
• Full benefits package
• Opportunity to work on some of the most prestigious façade projects in London
• Career progression within a growing and supportive company
