Job Description

I'm working with a well-established fit-out and refurbishment contractor based in Central London who deliver a range of high-quality commercial and workplace projects across the capital and South East. With a strong reputation for delivering projects up to 10m in value, this business is recognised for its client-focused approach, collaborative culture, and consistent pipeline of negotiated work.
They have built a team that values innovation, precision, and pride in what they do - and due to sustained growth, they are now looking to strengthen their pre-construction department with the appointment of an Intermediate Pre-Construction Manager.
ABOUT THE ROLE
As the Pre-Construction Manager, you'll support the Head of Pre-Construction in coordinating bids and managing the front-end delivery process. You'll be involved from initial enquiry through to handover to delivery teams - working closely with estimators, design managers, and project leads to ensure a smooth and professional tender process.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to step up from an Assistant Pre-Con Manager or Estimator position into a more rounded role with greater responsibility and client exposure.
Key responsibilities include:

• Managing pre-construction programmes and tender submissions.
• Coordinating design information, consultant input, and buildability reviews.
• Attending client meetings and supporting bid presentations.
• Working closely with internal estimating and delivery teams to ensure accurate project proposals.
• Maintaining strong communication with clients and key stakeholders throughout the pre-con process.

You'll be based out of their modern Central London office, with flexibility to work from home one day per week.
REQUIREMENTS

• Minimum 4-6 years' experience within a fit-out, refurbishment, or main contracting environment.
• Strong understanding of pre-construction processes - ideally gained from a bid coordination, estimating, or design management role.
• Excellent communication and organisation skills, with confidence managing multiple tenders at once.
• A genuine interest in commercial interiors and delivering projects of quality and detail.
• Degree qualified (or equivalent) in Construction Management, Quantity Surveying, or a related discipline.

REWARDS AND BENEFITS

• Competitive salary up to 65,000, depending on experience.
• Annual bonus scheme and regular salary reviews.
• Private healthcare and pension contribution.
• One day working from home each week.
• Opportunity for continued professional development and career progression.
• A collaborative working culture within a respected, growing business.
