Design Manager – Façades
Location: Kent
Salary: Competitive, depending on experience
Type: Permanent
Join a Leading Façade Specialist
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Design Manager to join a well-established and highly regarded specialist façade contractor, delivering complex façade and building envelope projects across the UK.
This is an excellent opportunity for a Design Manager with a strong background in façade design, cladding, curtain walling, rainscreen or building envelope systems to take ownership of design delivery across a diverse portfolio of projects.
Working closely with clients, architects, consultants, subcontractors and internal project teams, you will play a key role in ensuring designs are technically robust, coordinated and delivered in line with programme, budget and quality requirements.
The Role
As Design Manager, you will be responsible for managing the design process from early-stage development through to construction and completion. You will act as a key link between the design team, commercial team, site teams and external stakeholders.
Your responsibilities will include:
Managing the design process across multiple façade projects from pre-construction through to delivery.
Coordinating internal and external design teams, consultants, suppliers and specialist subcontractors.
Reviewing and managing technical drawings, specifications, calculations and design information.
Ensuring façade designs are fully coordinated with architectural, structural and MEP requirements.
Identifying and resolving technical and design issues throughout the project lifecycle.
Managing design programmes, deliverables, approvals and technical submissions.
Working closely with project and commercial teams to ensure design decisions align with programme and commercial requirements.
Attending design, client and project meetings and providing technical input where required.
Reviewing proposed façade systems, materials and construction methodologies.
Ensuring designs comply with relevant Building Regulations, industry standards and project-specific requirements.
Supporting the development of buildable, cost-effective and technically compliant façade solutions.
About You
The ideal candidate will have previous experience working within façade design or façade construction, ideally with experience managing the design process on medium to large-scale projects.
You may come from a background such as Façade Design, Design Management, Cladding, Curtain Walling, Rainscreen, Building Envelope or Architectural Engineering.
We are particularly interested in individuals who can demonstrate:
Proven experience in a Design Manager or similar design-focused role.
Strong technical understanding of façade systems and construction.
Experience coordinating multiple stakeholders and design disciplines.
Ability to interpret technical drawings, specifications and design information.
Strong understanding of the design process from concept through to construction.
Excellent communication and organisational skills.
Ability to manage competing priorities and work to demanding project programmes.
A proactive approach to identifying and resolving technical issues.
Good knowledge of UK construction standards and Building Regulations.
Experience within a specialist contractor, façade contractor, consultancy or similar environment.
What's on Offer?
This is an excellent opportunity to join a growing and established façade specialist with a strong pipeline of projects and the opportunity to take responsibility for technically challenging schemes.
The successful candidate will benefit from:
Competitive salary based on experience.
Opportunity to work on high-profile façade and building envelope projects.
Long-term career progression.
A technically focused and collaborative working environment.
The opportunity to take ownership of major design packages.
Exposure to a broad range of façade systems, materials and construction methods.
Interested?
If you are an experienced Design Manager, Façade Designer, Senior Façade Designer or Design Coordinator looking for your next opportunity, I would be keen to speak with you.
