Обязанности

- You’ll also:

- Review and challenge project cost plans, budgets and commercial strategies
- Oversee tendering, subcontractor selection and procurement

Требования
- The most important thing for us is a genuine commercial fit-out background .
- You may have worked across workplace, hospitality, retail or other commercial interior environments, but a significant part of your career needs to have been spent delivering fit-out projects.
- Experience within a Design & Build or similarly commercially led fit-out environment would be particularly valuable.
- You’ll bring strong experience across both the commercial and operational sides of construction, including:
- Commercial interior fit-out
- Preconstruction and estimating
- Cost planning and project budgeting
- Procurement and subcontractor management
- Contract and commercial management
- Project and construction delivery
- Risk, forecasting and profitability
- Leadership and development of project teams
- You’ll be comfortable moving between the strategic and the detailed — leading people and setting direction, while still being able to challenge a cost plan, interrogate a tender, review the commercial position of a project or step into a delivery issue when required.
- Your current title could be Project Director, Construction Director, Preconstruction Director, Senior Project Manager, Branch Director, Head of Design & Build or something completely different.
- For us, the experience behind the title is what matters.
- If you’ve built your career around commercial interiors and fit-out in Zurich , understand how to set a project up commercially and know what it takes to deliver it successfully on site, we’d love to hear from you.
- Join and help shape the next phase of our Delivery and Preconstruction capability in Zurich.
