An exciting opportunity has arisen to join a growing and ambitious property consultancy as Cost Management Director, taking a senior position within its London business and playing a key role in the next phase of its growth.
This is not simply a delivery focused Cost Management role. The successful individual will have the opportunity to lead a team, influence the direction of the business, build and strengthen client relationships and have genuine commercial impact.
