Senior Development Project Manager - New Homes
£400p/d Umbrella (INSIDE IR35)
3 Months Initially (with view for extension in place)
Islington Council | Flexible Working

I'm working in partnership with Islington Council to appoint an experienced Senior Development Project Manager to support the delivery of their ambitious new homes programme.
This is a fantastic opportunity to lead major residential developments that genuinely make a difference - delivering high-quality, affordable homes in one of London's most diverse boroughs.

Why this role?
You'll be trusted to run complex schemes end-to-end, with real ownership and visibility.
Projects are substantial (typically £20m-£50m), the work is varied, and you'll have the support of experienced colleagues across development, housing and corporate landlord services.

What you'll be doing
·Managing up to 3 new-build housing projects at any one time, from early feasibility through to completion
·Delivering schemes through all RIBA stages, either directly or via development partners
·Leading large multi-disciplinary project teams (architects, consultants, contractors, EAs, etc.)
·Owning programme, budget and quality - keeping projects on track and well-governed
·Managing project finances, forecasts, viability modelling and funding streams
·Producing clear, concise project reporting for senior stakeholders
·Maintaining robust risk and issue management processes
·Overseeing planning conditions and Building Regulations compliance
·Working closely with residents, local communities, councillors and internal teams to ensure projects are delivered sensitively and successfully

On larger or more complex schemes, you'll work as part of a wider project team and may report into a Principal Project Manager.

Who they're looking for
This role will suit someone who is comfortable operating in a senior development management role, ideally with experience in local authority, housing association or public-sector-led development - although strong private-sector experience will also be considered.

You'll bring:
·UK Resident
·Minimum 3 years' experience within a social housing organisation.
·Solid experience delivering residential development or construction projects through all RIBA stages
·Confidence leading multi-disciplinary teams and managing complex stakeholder environments
·A proactive, solutions-focused approach and the ability to manage multiple projects at once

This role is anticipated to move quickly, therefore if you would like to be considered, please share your CV ASAP
