Development Project Manager - Estates/Client-Side

  • Beach Baker Property Recruitment
  • Nov 04, 2025
Full time

Job Description

Role Highlights:

  • Join a well-established, client-side organisation with a strong local presence.
  • Manage a diverse estate portfolio across Bristol and North Somerset.
  • Be part of a collaborative and experienced Estates team.
  • Enjoy a varied workload.
  • Benefit from secured funding and a robust pipeline of upcoming projects.

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Make a Meaningful Impact: Your work will directly enhance the lives in the community, supporting the organisation's mission to build thriving, inclusive environments.
  • Diverse Property Portfolio: From heritage-listed buildings to contemporary housing, you'll manage a rich mix of properties-all within a compact geographic area, keeping travel to a minimum.
  • Supportive Team Culture: Work alongside a skilled estates team including the Head of Property, Head of Capital Projects, Building Surveyors/Project Managers, and a Projects Coordinator. You'll also benefit from strong partnerships with external consultants.
  • Exciting Development Projects: Oversee and manage development projects from inception through to completion with values up to £60m. The role also involves development responsibilities from site identification, acquisition through to occupation.
  • Long-Term Stability: With solid financial backing and plans to double the property portfolio, this role offers excellent job security and growth potential.

Who We're Looking For:

  • Minimum 5 years' experience delivering medium to large-scale new build projects, ideally development schemes.
  • Strong stakeholder engagement and project coordination skills.
  • Professional qualifications such as MRICS, MCIOB, or APM are desirable but not essential.

Employee Benefits:

  • Free on-site parking.
  • 27 days annual leave + bank holidays.
  • 5% employer pension contribution.
  • Death in service benefit (x4 salary).
  • Enhanced sick pay.
  • Subsidised staff meals.
  • Free access to on-site gym and swimming pool.
  • Healthcare cash plan.
  • Long service recognition.
  • Flexible working arrangements.
