Head of Project Delivery – Luxury Residential | Cotswolds
Gloucestershire / Cotswolds · £85,000 · Permanent
The business
We're working with a privately owned luxury residential developer headquartered in Bristol, with a clear and uncompromising focus: designing and delivering homes where people genuinely aspire to live. The business has built a strong reputation across Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds, delivering some of the most carefully crafted new-build and heritage residential schemes in the region.
This is a business where quality is non-negotiable. Every home is built to a standard the team would be proud to live in themselves.
The opportunity
As the business continues to grow its pipeline of prestigious Cotswolds schemes, our client is looking to appoint a Head of Project Delivery to take strategic and operational ownership of construction across their portfolio. This is a senior hire for a developer that doesn't compromise on quality, working directly with the leadership team from their Bristol head office to ensure every home is delivered to the exceptional standard their customers demand.
Having operated at Contracts Manager level myself, I know this type of role requires someone who is equally at home reviewing a programme and a cost plan as they are walking a site and challenging a subcontractor on their finish. This is exactly the level of ownership our client needs.
What the role involves
- Full oversight of project delivery across a growing portfolio of luxury new-build and heritage residential schemes in Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds
- Ownership of programme and commercials across multiple concurrent sites
- Appointing, managing and holding to account site management teams and subcontractors
- Working closely with the senior leadership team on project planning, cost control and programme
- Ensuring design intent and finish quality are maintained from groundworks through to handover
- Setting the standards of health, safety and site presentation expected of a premium developer
- Playing an active role in pre-construction, procurement and buildability reviews
What we're looking for
- A proven track record delivering high-end residential schemes — luxury new-build, heritage, listed buildings, or a combination
- Strong commercial awareness — comfortable owning a programme and a budget at portfolio level
- Contracts Manager or senior Site Manager background with the ambition and credibility to step up
- The kind of eye for detail and finishing standard that a discerning end customer will demand
- Experience managing site managers and subcontractor supply chains across multiple projects
- Someone who takes personal pride in the product and holds others to the same standard
- Based within a commutable distance of Bristol, Gloucestershire or the Cotswolds
This is a rare opportunity to join a founder-led luxury developer at a pivotal stage of growth, taking genuine ownership of how their homes are built and delivered. Our client is highly motivated to find the right person and will move quickly for a strong candidate.
