Principal Designer

CDM Principal Designer - hybrid working, flexible full or part time

Join a small but expanding team of consultants specialising in project managing education new build, refurb, and maintenance projects across East Anglia & Essex.

Working with a team of surveyors and project managers as Principal Designer, you will be part of a friendly firm that is open to part-time, full-time, or hybrid working. The company has a two-year pipeline of work secured from repeat business and successful CIF bid awards. This is an excellent career opportunity within a growing independent team.

This is a client-facing Principal Designer role, working alongside academics, consultants, and contractors on a range of projects for academy trusts, schools, and colleges, with project values up to £2m.

Primarily within the education sector, you will provide PD and design risk mitigation advice on new build and refurb projects across several framework agreements. You will be involved from concept to completion on multiple projects.

While most work involves schools, there may be opportunities in sports and leisure projects. You will regularly interact with contractors, consultants, and design teams, providing ample opportunity to demonstrate your strong communication and management skills.

What do I need to be considered?

You should have a background in CDM and Health & Safety within the built environment, with experience undertaking Principal Designer responsibilities. Exposure to education projects or PD experience gained within surveying, architecture, or consultancy settings is preferred. A qualification such as TechIOSH or similar is required.

Bring your energy and ambition to this growing team that continues to expand its project reach. The company offers flexible working arrangements, including part-time and hybrid options.
