About you

We expect you to have a good understanding of the Preconstruction process from Client Acquisition through to the point where work on site begins. You'll need to have worked in Commercial Interiors, or Corporate Fit-out Business, or have highly relevant experience from another industry. As an experienced member of the team you'll be expected to mentor more junior team members and provide assistance to them as needed, but also potentially manage them on larger projects where you require support. This is a hybrid role based in London, and you'll need to be based in the nearby area to be considered for this role.
