\n

\n

This is a leadership role with real substance.

Not a “title-only” position.

\n

Not inheriting a stagnant office.

\n

\n

This is about taking an established Cambridge presence and driving it forward building on strong foundations, growing the team, and deepening client relationships in one of the UK’s most active sectors.

\n

\n

The Opportunity

\n

\n

You’ll be joining a specialist construction consultancy known for delivering major industrial, logistics and real estate projects across the UK and Europe.

\n

They’ve built a reputation for high-quality delivery, long-term client relationships, and technical excellence across both project and cost management.

\n

Cambridge is already established, with a core team in place.

\n

\n

Now, the plan is growth:

\n

\n

\n
• Increased headcount
\n
• Stronger client footprint
\n
• A more visible regional presence
\n

\n

\n

This role sits right at the centre of that.

\n

\n

The Role

\n

\n

\n
• Lead and develop the Cambridge office (team, delivery, performance)
\n
• Grow and strengthen key client relationships across the region
\n
• Drive new business and work-winning activity
\n
• Oversee project delivery across multiple schemes
\n
• Mentor and grow an already established team
\n
• Work closely with the wider leadership group on regional strategy
\n

\n

\n

Whether your background is Project Management or Commercial, the focus is the same leadership, growth, and delivery.

\n

\n

Why this stands out

\n

\n

\n
• Established office → not a cold start
\n
• Strong pipeline in industrial, logistics & real estate
\n
• Backed by a growing, entrepreneurial consultancy & wider group
\n
• Real influence on hiring, clients, and direction
\n
• Clear route to senior leadership / equity longer-term
\n
