Job Description


Join Our Team as a Preconstruction Manager!

Location: Scotland (Hybrid)

Type: Permanent & Full Time

Salary: Competitive (Dependent on Experience) + Car Allowance & Flexible Benefits

About the Role:


Are you ready to take the lead in exciting, large-scale multidisciplinary projects? Freedom is on the lookout for a passionate Preconstruction Manager (Electrical) to guide a talented team of design engineers. In this pivotal role, you will ensure a smooth transition from preconstruction to construction, facilitating the seamless handover of engineering solutions.

As our Electrical Preconstruction Manager, you will leverage your construction and site experience to enhance the design process, spearheading the constructability review phase of electrical designs. Your leadership, problem-solving abilities, and stakeholder management skills will be crucial in driving project efficiency and successful delivery.

This dynamic position may involve managing multiple projects simultaneously and will require occasional travel to various offices and sites.

Your Key Responsibilities:


As a Preconstruction Manager, you will focus on Design & Build projects, with responsibilities spanning three key phases:


  • Tender Phase: Evaluate client and project requirements from tender documentation. Assist sales and business development teams with risk and opportunity assessments. Provide cost estimations and contribute to initial project scheduling. Address design-related queries during the tender process.

  • Post-Contract Award: Lead constructability reviews, ensuring designs are practical for construction. Provide construction-level input into the project schedule and quality plan. Assist in managing the project risk register and health & safety file. Support the transition from design to construction.

  • Construction Phase: Provide site support, troubleshooting construction issues as they arise. Offer technical guidance to ensure design feasibility throughout the project. Conduct lessons learned reviews to enhance future project execution.

What We're Looking For:


We seek individuals with a robust technical background in electrical or civil engineering and construction, complemented by commercial awareness and leadership capabilities. We actively encourage chartership in engineering, and senior professionals are expected to be chartered or working towards it.

Essential Qualifications:



  • Extensive experience in preconstruction and construction management.

  • Proven ability to lead and manage teams of construction managers, supervisors, and site engineers.

  • Strong knowledge of construction management, OH&S, and SHEQ.

  • HND in Engineering or Construction (or equivalent qualification).

  • Health & Safety qualification (SMSTS, IOSH, or NEBOSH).

Desirable Qualifications:



  • Knowledge of UK T&D regulations and client standards.

  • Familiarity with safe systems of work and engineering best practices.

  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office and project management software.

  • CSCS card.

  • Strong leadership and communication skills.

If you are an experienced Preconstruction Manager eager to drive project success from design to construction, we would love to hear from you!


What We Offer:


At Freedom, we are committed to evolving our benefits to attract and retain top talent. Here's what you can expect:


  • Industry competitive base salary.

  • Car/car allowance.

  • Salary sacrifice car scheme (Hybrid/Electric Vehicle).

  • Pension with a leading provider and up to 8% employer contribution.

  • Personal Wellbeing and Volunteer Days.

  • Private Medical Insurance.

  • Free 24/7 Employee Assistance Program for mental health and well-being support.

  • Flexible benefits tailored to your needs, including Dental Insurance, Gym Memberships, and more.

  • Personal development program to support your growth.

Next Steps:


We are dedicated to building a culture where everyone feels included, treated fairly, and respected. This commitment starts with our recruitment process. We will provide clear information about the recruitment process and are happy to accommodate any needs you may have during the application or interview stages.

About Us:


Freedom is part of the NG Bailey Group, a leading independent engineering and services business in the UK. Founded in 1921, we have a turnover of £500m and employ 3000 people. We take pride in our history of developing great talent through our investment in training.
