Senior Design & Development Project Manager
We are seeking an experienced Senior Design & Development Project Manager to lead complex design and development programmes from initial concept through to delivery. The role will involve coordinating multidisciplinary teams, managing project objectives, and ensuring that solutions are delivered on time, within budget, and to the required quality, safety, and performance standards. You will establish clear project plans, milestones, resource requirements, and governance arrangements while maintaining visibility of progress, risks, dependencies, and decisions.
Working closely with internal stakeholders, technical specialists, suppliers, consultants, and delivery partners, you will manage the design development process and ensure effective collaboration throughout each project phase. Key responsibilities will include reviewing and approving design information, coordinating design reviews, managing change control, monitoring costs and schedules, resolving issues, and ensuring compliance with relevant regulations, standards, and contractual obligations. You will also prepare clear reports for senior stakeholders, lead project meetings, and promote continuous improvement in processes, tools, and ways of working.
The successful candidate will have substantial experience managing design and development projects in a complex, regulated, engineering, construction, property, or product-focused environment. A relevant professional qualification or degree is desirable, together with strong knowledge of project management principles, design governance, risk management, procurement, and commercial control. You will be confident communicating with people at all levels, able to challenge constructively, and skilled at building productive relationships across multiple teams. Strong organisation, analytical thinking, decision-making, and problem-solving abilities are essential, as is the ability to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment. Experience using project management and collaboration software, along with a recognised project management qualification, would be advantageous.
