Building Regulations Principal Contractor (Named Duty holder)
Location: Flexible InterimRate: dep on experience

Hays Construction & Property is recruiting an experienced Building Regulations Principal Contractor for a specialist interim appointment. You'll be the named duty holder, so this role needs someone who has already held this responsibility and can show proven competence under the Building Safety Act.
This isn't a general construction delivery role. The client wants proven regulatory competence and accountability, and that matters more to them than your sector background.

What you'll be doing

• Acting as the named Building Regulations Principal Contractor and dutyholder
• Planning, managing and monitoring building work so it complies with Building Regulations
• Leading regulatory governance and compliance on Higher Risk Building projects
• Making sure Building Safety Act duties are met and evidenced throughout delivery
• Working with the design team, client and Building Safety Regulator as needed

What you'll need

• Full chartered status (MCIOB, MRICS, CEng or equivalent)
• At least one previous appointment as a Building Regulations Principal Contractor
• Experience as a named dutyholder
• Strong Building Safety Act knowledge and hands-on experience
• Higher Risk Building (HRB) experience
• A track record of leading regulatory governance and compliance

Who this suitsThe client is open on sector background. It could suit dutyholders from:

• Tier one contractors
• Major consultancies
• NHS Estates teams
• Local Authority property teams
• Regulated infrastructure programmes

Why apply?

• A rate that reflects how specialist this role is
• A high-profile, accountable position in a fast-growing, regulated area of construction
• The chance to lead on compliance where your expertise really counts
