Preconstruction Manager
We are seeking an experienced Preconstruction Manager to lead the planning, coordination and commercial preparation of projects from initial enquiry through to contract award. This is an excellent opportunity for a construction professional who can combine technical knowledge, commercial awareness and strong stakeholder management to support the successful delivery of complex building projects.
Responsibilities will include reviewing tender documentation, drawings and specifications; developing detailed preconstruction programmes; coordinating design, estimating, procurement and planning activities; and identifying opportunities, risks and value-engineering solutions. You will manage the tender process from bid strategy through to submission, ensuring that proposals are accurate, competitive and delivered on time. The role will also involve preparing and reviewing cost plans, supporting client and consultant meetings, managing subcontractor and supplier enquiries, and contributing to the smooth transition of successful projects to the delivery team. Maintaining clear records, monitoring deadlines and ensuring compliance with relevant legislation, standards and company procedures will be essential.
Applicants should have proven experience in a preconstruction, estimating, design management or construction planning role, ideally gained within a main contractor or specialist contracting environment. A strong understanding of construction methods, procurement routes, contract documentation and project risk management is required, together with the ability to interpret technical drawings and specifications. You will be commercially astute, highly organised and confident working across multiple projects and competing priorities. Excellent communication and negotiation skills are essential, as is the ability to build effective relationships with clients, consultants, subcontractors and internal teams. Relevant qualifications in construction, engineering, quantity surveying or a related discipline are desirable, alongside proficiency in common project management, estimating and document-control software.
