Job description

Development Project Manager – Residential Development

London | Client-side | Build to Rent

Capstone is working with an established international real estate investment and development business to appoint a Development Project Manager into its UK residential development team.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone with around 2–3 years’ project management experience who wants to move further into client-side development and gain exposure across the full development lifecycle.

Working closely with the Director of Development, you will support the delivery of large-scale Build to Rent residential projects from acquisition and early-stage development through design, construction, handover and operation.

The role will include:

• Supporting the planning and delivery of residential development projects from acquisition through to operation
• Managing development programmes, budgets, cashflows and forecasting
• Coordinating consultants, project teams and external stakeholders
• Supporting consultant procurement and change management
• Providing input into design, amenity spaces, specifications and material selection
• Overseeing elements of the handover process
• Working closely with internal Asset Management, Finance, Marketing, Acquisitions and Legal teams
• Preparing project reporting and presentations for senior management

We are looking for someone with approximately 3–6 years’ experience in a project management capacity and, importantly, some exposure to residential development. You could currently be working for a developer, investor, consultancy or project management business and looking to make the move client-side.

Strong communication, commercial awareness, attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple workstreams will be important.
