Land Development Project Manager
Land Development Project Manager
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Land Development Project Manager to lead the delivery of residential and mixed-use development projects from initial feasibility through to completion. This role will suit a commercially minded professional with strong technical knowledge, excellent stakeholder management skills and a proven record of delivering complex land development schemes.
You will coordinate multidisciplinary teams, manage project programmes and ensure that developments progress efficiently, safely and in line with planning, technical and financial requirements. Working closely with consultants, contractors, local authorities, landowners and internal stakeholders, you will provide clear leadership throughout each stage of the development process.
Key responsibilities
- Manage projects from site appraisal, acquisition and planning through to construction and handover.
- Prepare and maintain detailed project programmes, budgets, risk registers and delivery strategies.
- Coordinate planning applications, technical approvals, infrastructure works and statutory agreements.
- Appoint and manage external consultants, contractors and specialist advisers.
- Monitor project performance, costs, quality, health and safety, and compliance with agreed objectives.
- Identify risks, resolve issues and provide accurate progress reports to senior stakeholders.
- Build effective relationships with local authorities, utility providers, communities, landowners and delivery partners.
- Support land appraisals, viability assessments, procurement activities and commercial negotiations.
About you
You will have substantial experience in land development, property development, civil engineering or a closely related discipline, ideally gained within a developer, consultancy, contractor or public-sector environment. A relevant degree or professional qualification is desirable, alongside a strong understanding of the planning, technical, legal and commercial considerations involved in delivering development projects.
You should be confident managing multiple priorities, interpreting technical information and making sound commercial decisions. Excellent communication, negotiation and problem-solving skills are essential, as is the ability to work collaboratively while taking ownership of outcomes. Experience of residential development, infrastructure delivery and project management methodologies would be advantageous.
What is offered
This role provides the opportunity to lead high-profile development projects, influence strategic land delivery and work within a supportive, professional environment. A competitive salary and benefits package is available, alongside opportunities for continued career development.
