About MCR Property Group

MCR Property Group is a leading independent real estate investment and development company with a strong UK presence and offices in London, Manchester, Birmingham, and Glasgow. Our core focus is residential and industrial development, alongside the active asset management of a diverse national portfolio. We currently control approximately 5,000 residential plots and a commercial and industrial portfolio valued in excess of £2 billion.

We are entering a significant phase of growth and are seeking driven, capable individuals who want to grow with the business and contribute to the delivery of high-quality schemes across the UK.

The Role

We are currently seeking an experienced Construction Project Director to join MCR Property Group on a major scheme based in Bedfordshire. This is a senior, site-focused role offering the opportunity to take full ownership of project delivery within a fast-paced, highly active development business. You will be sited-based 4 days a week, with 1 day in the London office.

This position is ideal for a commercially minded construction leader who thrives on responsibility, enjoys building and leading high-performing teams, and wants to play a key role in delivering complex residential-led developments for a growing national developer.

As Construction Project Director, you will assume full responsibility for the successful planning, management, and delivery of the project from pre-construction through to completion. Reporting directly to the Construction Director, you will lead all aspects of site delivery, ensuring projects are delivered safely, on programme, within budget, and to the highest quality standards.

You will oversee the development of comprehensive project programmes, including timelines, budgets, and resource planning, while building and managing a strong on-site and consultant team. This includes full responsibility for subcontractor procurement, management of all subcontract packages, and coordination of suppliers throughout the build process.

The role will involve overseeing the design process from RIBA Stage 3 through to Stage 6, ensuring design intent is maintained while supporting efficient, buildable solutions. You will maintain rigorous quality control procedures, uphold health and safety standards at all times, and ensure full compliance with statutory requirements, building regulations, and company policies.

Commercially, you will closely monitor project budgets, manage costs, assess risk, and identify opportunities to add value without compromising quality or programme. You will be responsible for managing project risk registers, resolving issues as they arise, and maintaining clear, consistent communication with internal and external stakeholders, providing regular progress updates and reports.

Requirements

The successful candidate will have proven experience operating at senior project or project director level within residential development, with a strong track record of delivering complex schemes, ideally including high-rise residential projects. A degree in construction management, engineering, or a related discipline is preferred.

You will bring strong leadership capability, excellent commercial awareness, and the confidence to make clear, decisive decisions. Experience using construction management software and systems is essential, alongside exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills.

Please note that this role is office- and site-based. We do not offer hybrid or remote working options for this position.
