About
Join a growing, design-led super-prime residential contractor operating at the premium end of the London refurbishment market.
This business delivers one-off, architect-led, technically complex homes — from listed buildings and conservation-area refurbishments to basements, structural reconfigurations, and full townhouse transformations.
This is not volume housing or repetitive developer product — this is detail-driven, craftsmanship-led construction where design integrity matters. They’re actively winning work, tendering heavily, and expanding as the business scales.
The Role • Take full ownership of the design management process across bespoke residential & heritage refurbishments • Manage consultant teams (architects, structural engineers, MEP, heritage specialists) from pre-construction through delivery • Drive technical coordination across basement works, structural alterations and high-end interior packages • Review drawings for buildability, compliance and coordination before issue to site • Work closely with Directors, Commercial and Site Teams to protect programme and design intent • Lead design workshops, RFI management, and programme integration • Support tender stages, technical reviews and pre-construction planning
What they’re looking for • Intermediate stepping up or established Design Manager • Background in residential, high-end refurb, heavy structural, or complex fit-out • Strong understanding of technical detailing and coordination • Someone comfortable operating in a smaller, hands-on environment • Practical mindset — solution-driven rather than process-heavy • Commercial awareness and appreciation for programme pressures • Loyal, adaptable and delivery-focused
The Company They are a super-prime residential and heritage refurbishment contractor delivering architect-led projects across London.
Typical works include: • Listed & period buildings • Basement excavations • Structural reconfigurations • Full townhouse refurbishments • High-end bespoke interiors
It’s technically challenging work, executed to a very high standard. This is craftsmanship-led construction — not corporate box-ticking.
