<h3>Who you’ll be supporting &amp; more about the role:</h3>
This is a pivotal role where you'll lead complex housing development projects from feasibility through to operational handover, delivering high-quality specialist accommodation that enables people we support to live full, independent and meaningful lives. Working alongside operational teams, property professionals and external partners, you'll help shape projects through meaningful co-production and ensure successful delivery across every stage of the development lifecycle.
This role focuses on major capital development projects involving significant investment, multiple stakeholders and formal governance requirements, rather than routine maintenance or minor refurbishment activity.

<li>Provide technical oversight of construction activity, contractor performance, quality assurance and site delivery.</li>

<li>Contribute specialist property, construction and delivery expertise to business cases and investment decisions.</li>
<li>Manage contractor valuations, expenditure and project budgets in line with contractual milestones and delegated authority.</li>
<li>Shape developments through meaningful co-production with people we support, families, advocates and operational teams.</li>
<li>Prepare reports, recommendations and approval requests for governance forums, including the Executive Team, Trustees and Board.</li>
<li>Identify and manage project risks, ensuring compliance with planning, legal, contractual and regulatory requirements.</li>
<li>Lead post-project evaluation and benefits realisation activities to drive continuous improvement, value for money and long-term impact across the development portfolio.</li>
</ul>
