Location: South West London
An excellent opportunity has arisen for an experienced Project Lead to take full responsibility for the delivery of a major new-build residential development in South West London.
The scheme comprises approximately 340 residential units across two towers, including a 37-storey high-rise building and a smaller eight-storey affordable housing block. The development will incorporate a reinforced concrete frame and unitised façade, with a three-year construction programme.
The project presents a number of logistical challenges, with the site positioned adjacent to a railway line and surrounded by existing high-rise buildings. Groundworks approvals are in place, with piling scheduled to commence in January.
As Project Lead, you will take the No. 1 position on site, overseeing the day-to-day delivery of the development and reporting directly to the Project Director.
Key responsibilities will include:
- Taking overall responsibility for the successful delivery of the project from commencement through to completion.
- Leading and coordinating site teams, subcontractors and consultants.
- Managing programme, quality, health and safety, logistics and commercial performance.
- Managing complex site logistics and interfaces with the surrounding environment and adjacent railway infrastructure.
- Driving progress against key milestones while maintaining the highest standards of quality and safety.
- Working closely with the Project Director to ensure the development is delivered on time and to specification.
The ideal candidate will have a strong construction engineering background and a proven track record of leading major residential or high-rise developments. Experience delivering reinforced concrete frame projects is essential, while previous exposure to unitised façades and working alongside Network Rail infrastructure would be highly advantageous.
This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious and technically strong construction professional to take the lead on a significant residential development, with a competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
