Technical Manager - Maidenhead - Up to £85,000 + package 

Potensis Selection is delighted to partner with an award-winning Mixed-Use Developer who is seeking a Technical Manager to join its dynamic Berkshire division. The role has a focus on BSR Schemes in the short term but can progress on to new build schemes should that be the preference.  

Key Responsibilities:

• Work closely with architects, structural and civil engineers, and planning consultants to create practical and cost-effective design solutions that adhere to planning policies, regulatory requirements, and site constraints. Identify and mitigate potential risks early in the process to ensure projects remain on schedule and within budget.
• External stakeholder management and MHCLG returns.
• Review and manage technical drawings, specifications, and reports, ensuring that all designs meet NHBC, Building Regulations, and other statutory requirements. You will lead the process of securing technical approvals, efficiently resolving design queries, and providing innovative solutions to any complex construction challenges that arise.
• Lead and support a team of technical professionals, fostering a collaborative and solutions-focused culture. You will provide mentorship and guidance, ensuring that junior team members develop the necessary expertise to contribute effectively to project delivery.

Key Requirements:

• A background in Architecture, Engineering, or another relevant technical discipline, with substantial experience in residential development gained from a housebuilder, developer, or technical consultancy. You should have a solid understanding of the full project lifecycle, from land acquisition to construction completion.
• Having worked/working on BSR developments, exposure to Gateway 1/2 submissions.
• Knowledge of UK Building Regulations, NHBC standards, and planning legislation, with a proven ability to navigate the approvals process effectively. Familiarity with Revit, AutoCAD, and other relevant design software is beneficial.
• Strong problem-solving and project management skills, with the ability to handle multiple complex projects simultaneously. You should be confident in leading technical meetings, managing consultants, and ensuring that technical challenges are resolved in a timely and efficient manner.
• Exceptional communication and leadership abilities, with a proactive approach to stakeholder engagement. You will be expected to liaise with various teams, including land, planning, commercial, and construction, ensuring that all technical considerations align with broader project and business objectives.

The role would suit an existing Technical Manager interested in working with a business with an excellent, committed pipeline on some of London's most prestigious projects or a Senior Technical Coordinator who is looking to be involved on some high end complex schemes.
