Senior Development Manager

Associate Director | Higher Capital Consulting

I’m recruiting a Head of Project Management for a London-focused living-sector investment and development platform with a substantial live pipeline and a long-term ownership mindset.

The business is institutionally backed, led by a highly experienced senior team with a strong track record. The platform is actively scaling its London portfolio, with a large volume of work already on site and further schemes moving through the pipeline.

This is a delivery-led role with real scale and influence. There are multiple London schemes currently on site, representing nine-figure levels of live construction activity across the portfolio. You will take a lead role across design, procurement and construction, managing contractors and consultant teams, and owning programme, cost and quality through to handover.

The workload is significant, by design. The team is high-quality, highly skilled and deliberately lean, and this is a senior position within it. The right person will have a meaningful voice in how projects are delivered, how problems are solved and how standards are set across the portfolio. High performance is recognised and rewarded.

As the platform continues to grow, the role will broaden to include development exposure, including earlier-stage input, buildability and procurement strategy, with closer interaction with the investment side.

They are open on background. Candidates can come from consultancy or client-side roles, with client side preferred, but must have strong living-sector delivery experience and be comfortable leading multiple live projects simultaneously.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who is commercially sharp, technically confident and motivated by responsibility and pace. If this sounds like the right next step, upload your CV and I’ll arrange a time to speak.
