Senior Pre-Construction Manager
We are seeking an experienced Senior Pre-Construction Manager to lead the planning, coordination and commercial preparation of major construction projects from early-stage opportunity through to contract award. This is a key role for a strategic and commercially minded professional who can bring together design, procurement, estimating and delivery teams to establish robust project plans and competitive, buildable solutions.
You will manage the pre-construction process, including reviewing client requirements, developing project strategies, coordinating feasibility studies, and overseeing design development. Responsibilities will include preparing and reviewing cost plans, budgets, programmes, procurement schedules, risk registers and tender documentation; assessing subcontractor and supplier proposals; leading value engineering initiatives; and ensuring that all proposals meet quality, safety, sustainability and compliance requirements. You will work closely with clients, consultants, design teams and internal stakeholders, providing clear updates and presenting recommendations to support informed decision-making. You will also identify commercial, technical and programme risks, develop mitigation strategies, and support negotiations through to successful contract award and project handover.
Applicants should have substantial pre-construction or estimating experience within the construction or property sector, with a strong understanding of design management, procurement, contracts, cost control and construction methodologies. Experience managing complex tenders and working across multiple stakeholders is essential, together with the ability to interpret technical information and translate it into practical commercial outcomes. Strong leadership, communication, negotiation and organisational skills are required, as is a proactive approach to problem-solving and continuous improvement. Relevant industry qualifications or professional membership would be advantageous. In return, this role offers the opportunity to influence high-value projects, work with a skilled multidisciplinary team and contribute to a growing pipeline of work.
