- Lead design team progress meetings and collaborate closely with onsite commercial and delivery teams to resolve technical issues swiftly.
Requirements
- Security Clearance (SC) is essential.
- Proven experience as a Design Manager within a main contractor environment.
- Strong technical background in fire safety schemes, structural fire upgrades, or passive fire compliance.
- Prior experience working on prison, custodial, or highly secure Ministry of Justice (MoJ) estates is highly desirable.
- Excellent communication and technical coordination skills, with a focus on strict compliance standards.
- Ability to comfortably split time between the Warrington office and the site at HMP Haverigg.
What’s on Offer
- Up to £400-475 per day (Umbrella PAYE – Inside IR35).
- Ongoing, stable freelance contract on a vital infrastructure framework.
- Immediate start available.
If you hold a current SC clearance, possess robust fire safety experience, and want to play a key role in an essential justice estate upgrade, apply today for immediate consideration.
