Full job description

Streetspace designs and delivers permanent buildings and covered spaces for schools, colleges and multi-academy trusts across the UK.

We are looking for another Design & Technical Manager to join our construction team. This is a hands-on technical design role for someone who can take an early-stage requirement, survey or concept and work out how the project should actually be designed and built.

You will develop the technical solution, resolve design and buildability constraints, produce key technical design outputs yourself where appropriate, and give clear direction to internal and external drawing resources.

This is not primarily a production draughting role. We can flex routine drawing production internally or externally. What we need is someone with the technical judgement and practical design ability to determine what should be drawn and how the solution should work.

What you’ll be doing

Develop technical solutions from early project requirements, surveys and concept information
Work through construction interfaces, materials, dimensions and design constraints
Use CAD, sketches, layouts and details to develop and communicate technical solutions
Produce key technical design outputs personally where this is the most effective way to progress the project
Identify buildability issues before projects reach site
Develop solutions that balance technical requirements, buildability, programme and cost
Consider Building Regulations and approval requirements during design development
Produce clear technical briefs for internal and external drawing resources
Direct and review CAD, consultant and specialist supplier outputs
Review drawings, details and technical assumptions before issue
Support development of technically clear procurement packages
Work with commercial and delivery teams to resolve technical questions
Provide specialist technical support to live projects where required
Maintain visibility of technical actions and escalate issues that could delay projects

What we’re looking for

The key requirement is technical design judgement combined with hands-on design capability.

You should be comfortable taking a problem that is not fully resolved and working out the practical technical solution, rather than relying on somebody else to define it before you begin.

Strong CAD capability is expected, although this is not a production draughting position. You should be able to use CAD to develop and resolve technical solutions yourself where appropriate, while routine drawing production can be supported by other internal or external resources.

You may come from a background such as:

Architectural Technology
Construction Design Management
Design-and-Build
Structural or building-envelope design
Steel-frame or light industrial construction
Modular construction
Specialist subcontractor design
Construction engineering
Technically led pre-construction

You should have:

Strong construction and buildability knowledge
Good technical detailing and problem-solving ability
Strong CAD capability
An understanding of how buildings, structures and components actually go together on site
Confidence developing technical solutions directly as well as reviewing and directing drawing work
Good awareness of Building Regulations and technical compliance
The ability to communicate technical decisions clearly
Commercial awareness and a pragmatic approach to design

The team

You will work closely with our Construction Director, Project Delivery Manager, technical pre-construction team, Commercial Manager and Project Managers.

Streetspace works in a collaborative design-and-build environment, so you will be close to both the commercial thinking behind projects and the teams responsible for building them.

Why Streetspace?

This is a role with real influence over how projects are developed.

You will not simply be coordinating consultants or passing drawings between teams. You will be expected to think technically, get into the design where necessary, challenge assumptions, resolve problems and help shape projects before they reach site.

For someone who enjoys the point where design, construction and commercial thinking meet, it is a strong opportunity to make a visible contribution to a growing business.

Salary and benefits

£50,000–£60,000 depending on experience
Full-time, permanent role
Office-based at Lympne, Kent
24 days holiday plus bank holidays
Company pension
Opportunity to influence projects from early design through to construction

Pay: £50,000.00-£60,000.00 per year

Work Location: In person
