Preconstruction Manager
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Preconstruction Manager to lead the planning, coordination and development of projects from early concept through to contract award. You will play a central role in shaping successful bids, ensuring proposals are commercially robust, technically deliverable and aligned with client expectations.
Working closely with estimating, design, commercial and operational teams, you will manage the preconstruction process across a range of projects. You will establish effective plans, coordinate internal and external stakeholders, and provide clear reporting on progress, risks, costs and programme requirements.
Key responsibilities
- Lead preconstruction activities from initial enquiry and feasibility through to tender submission and handover.
- Develop and manage preconstruction programmes, ensuring key deliverables and deadlines are achieved.
- Coordinate design development, value engineering, buildability reviews and technical submissions.
- Work with estimating and commercial teams to prepare accurate budgets, cost plans and tender returns.
- Identify project risks, opportunities, constraints and procurement requirements at an early stage.
- Manage relationships with clients, consultants, subcontractors and supply chain partners.
- Prepare and present progress updates, tender strategies and recommendations to senior stakeholders.
- Support the smooth transition from preconstruction into delivery, ensuring all relevant information is complete and properly communicated.
About you
You will have proven experience in a preconstruction, estimating, design management or construction planning role, ideally within a main contracting or specialist contracting environment. A strong understanding of construction methods, procurement routes, contract principles and commercial processes is essential.
You will be an organised and proactive professional with excellent communication and negotiation skills. The ability to manage multiple priorities, influence stakeholders and make sound decisions under pressure will be key to your success. Strong written and verbal presentation skills, together with confidence using common construction and project management software, are also required.
A relevant qualification in construction, engineering, quantity surveying or a related discipline would be advantageous. This role offers the opportunity to contribute to high-quality projects while progressing within a collaborative and forward-thinking environment.
