Development Manager - Living Sector

New Development role - East Midlands - Living Sector

Property development requires a combination of commercial instinct, sound judgement and the ability to turn an opportunity on paper into a successful scheme. For someone who enjoys the variety of that journey, this is an opportunity worth exploring.

An established property investor-developer in the East Midlands has a healthy pipeline of opportunities and a clear appetite to continue growing its portfolio. With projects to progress and further sites to pursue, there is scope for an experienced development professional to make a meaningful contribution to both the existing pipeline and the future direction of the business.

The appeal lies in the breadth of the role. From appraising opportunities and assessing viability through planning, design and delivery, to seeing projects through to completion, you will have the opportunity to remain involved throughout the development lifecycle. It is a position that calls for someone who enjoys looking at the bigger picture, understanding where value can be created and navigating the practical challenges that come with bringing a scheme forward.

The wider market makes this an interesting time to be involved in development. Construction costs, funding, planning and viability continue to cause most to lean away from pursuing development opportunities. Identifying the right opportunities and finding a commercially sound route to delivery are increasingly important. For the right individual, this presents an opportunity to apply their experience, influence key decisions and make a tangible difference.

The business is looking for someone commercially minded, proactive and comfortable working across the many moving parts of a development. Someone who enjoys building relationships, solving problems and balancing strategic thinking with the hands-on work required to keep projects moving.

For a development professional looking for genuine cradle-to-grave responsibility, an established pipeline and the opportunity to help shape future growth, this is a chat worth having. Give Matthew Bryan a call on 0161 607 5437 to hear more.
