Commercial Preconstruction Manager
We are seeking an experienced Commercial Preconstruction Manager to lead the planning, pricing and commercial development of construction opportunities from early concept through to contract award. This role will be responsible for establishing robust preconstruction strategies, coordinating internal and external stakeholders, and ensuring that proposals are commercially competitive, technically sound and aligned with client objectives. You will work closely with estimating, design, procurement, project delivery and senior management teams to develop accurate budgets, programmes, risk assessments and construction methodologies.
Key responsibilities will include reviewing tender and contract documentation, managing the preparation of cost plans and detailed estimates, monitoring design development, and identifying value engineering opportunities without compromising quality or compliance. You will oversee subcontractor and supplier engagement, including scope reviews, tender analysis, negotiations and procurement recommendations. The role will also involve assessing commercial and delivery risks, maintaining clear opportunity and risk registers, preparing bid submissions and presentations, and supporting successful handover into the delivery phase. Building effective relationships with clients, consultants, design teams and supply chain partners will be an important part of the position.
Applicants should have substantial preconstruction or commercial experience within the construction, engineering or property sector, with a strong understanding of estimating, procurement, contract principles and project delivery. Experience managing complex tenders and coordinating multidisciplinary teams is essential, together with the ability to interpret technical information and communicate commercial matters clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. Strong negotiation, analytical, organisational and presentation skills are required, alongside proficiency with relevant estimating, project management and Microsoft Office software. A relevant qualification in quantity surveying, construction management, engineering or a related discipline is desirable. The successful candidate will be proactive, commercially astute and confident working to deadlines in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.
