Senior Preconstruction Manager

Reference: ea46vj8gi7tefzf26zfc

We are seeking an experienced Senior Preconstruction Manager to lead the planning, pricing and commercial development of major construction projects from early concept through to contract award. This role will oversee the preconstruction process, ensuring that projects are thoroughly evaluated, accurately costed and strategically planned before work begins. You will work closely with clients, consultants, design teams, subcontractors and internal stakeholders to establish clear project objectives, delivery strategies, budgets and programmes.

Key responsibilities will include managing estimates, cost plans, value engineering exercises, risk registers, procurement strategies and tender submissions. You will review drawings, specifications and design information, identify constructability issues and coordinate the resolution of technical and commercial queries. The role will also involve leading bid and presentation teams, preparing detailed proposals, monitoring estimating standards and ensuring that all submissions are commercially competitive and aligned with project requirements. You will provide guidance to less experienced preconstruction and estimating professionals while contributing to the continuous improvement of processes, systems and reporting.

The successful candidate will have substantial experience in preconstruction, estimating, commercial management or a related construction discipline, ideally gained across complex building, infrastructure or major refurbishment projects. Strong knowledge of construction methods, procurement routes, contract principles, cost planning and programme development is essential. You will be a confident communicator with excellent negotiation, analytical and stakeholder-management skills, capable of working under pressure and managing multiple priorities. A relevant degree, professional qualification or equivalent industry experience is desirable. This is an opportunity for a commercially astute and collaborative professional to play a key role in shaping high-quality projects from the earliest stages through to successful delivery.
