Senior / Lead CDM Principal Designer

“Dead Mans Shoes: waiting for the person above you to retire, resign, or finally make good on a promise before you’re allowed to move up.”

This job isn’t about swapping one queue for a slightly shorter one. There is no queue. The function is brand new, and you’d have the opportunity to lead and grow the CDM part of the Building Safety team from day one.

The biggest problem for Senior CDM and upwards, is how you move up and make the next step when there’s people ahead of you, or you’re stuck on delivery and aren’t getting the opportunity to work more on fee quotes and setting up policies and services.

Here’s where you’ll get to dip your toe in early, and be in the ‘Head of’ title in 6 - 12 months.

You’d work for an established compliance group with three businesses already winning the kind of work that needs a CDM Principal Designer. So there’s existing clients, and work literally coming through the door.

You’d be starting your own CDM business with the back office and the business development taken care of and a salary every month.

You’d help to grow this significantly, and the shape it grows in is your call.

Mentorship and leadership and administrative support is all there, they will help you succeed.

There’s a 10% combined pension, 5% from them and 5% from you. Holiday starts at 29 days (Plus bank holidays) and grows a day every year to 32.

You’ll work from home, with offices nationwide you can build into and attend as and when.

What you’ll be doing

Delivering projects from a H&S CDM perspective as well as interrogating the Design and Design Risk Management.

From day one you’ll have a big hand in the function’s strategy.

You’ll help set up policies, procedures and create or bring documents that will allow you to grow a team.

Here’s what you’ll need

Previous experience in a Senior CDM role. You’re either a Senior, Associate or AD right now. They’re open to all.
