Head of Healthcare Cost Consultancy - Associate Director / Director

Location: London - Flexible Across England & Wales

Do not pass up this chance, apply quickly if your experience and skills match what is in the following description.

The Opportunity

I'm working with an established national construction consultancy looking to appoint an experienced healthcare Quantity Surveyor / Cost Manager to help establish and grow its healthcare offering.

This could suit an existing Director or Sector Lead, but equally it could be an excellent opportunity for an ambitious Associate Director who has developed strong healthcare experience, understands the sector and is ready to take considerably more ownership of their career.

The successful individual will play a leading role in developing the consultancy's presence across healthcare, with the opportunity to shape the sector strategy, develop key client relationships and, as the workload grows, build a specialist team around them.

The business already has a strong reputation across Quantity Surveying, Cost Management, Project Management and Development Monitoring, with established teams and infrastructure across the UK.

Healthcare forms an important part of the next stage of its growth.

Importantly, this is a strategic investment rather than a vacancy created simply because there is an immediate pile of work to deliver.

The leadership team understands that establishing meaningful relationships with NHS trusts, developing a profile within the sector, securing framework positions and building a sustainable pipeline takes time.

There is no expectation that you'll arrive with a substantial order book or immediately generate significant fees.

Instead, the business is prepared to back the right individual and give them the time, support and resources required to develop a credible healthcare offering.

For someone currently working within a larger consultancy who wants more influence, autonomy and long-term upside, this is a particularly interesting opportunity.

The Role

You'll take a leading role in developing the consultancy's Cost Management presence across NHS estates, hospitals and wider healthcare developments.

Working closely with the CEO, existing Directors and the national Cost and Project Management team, you'll have considerable influence over how the healthcare proposition develops.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Helping define and develop the healthcare Cost Consultancy strategy.
• Building and strengthening relationships with NHS trusts, healthcare providers, developers and other key sector organisations.
• Identifying relevant procurement frameworks and positioning the business for future appointments.
• Leading and contributing to bids, tenders and proposals for healthcare commissions. xgikmsk
