We are currently recruiting for 2 Development Managers.

The overall purpose of the Development Manager role is to lead and manage the delivery of specific projects that support Valleys to Coast’s ambitious Development Programme. You will play a key role in sourcing new business opportunities, ensuring development delivery is cost effective, and achieving the highest standards. Your work will directly contribute to delivering the objectives of our Development Strategy, creating homes and places that make a real difference to our communities.

As part of the role you will manage pre-contract opportunities, presenting clear and robust business cases that summarise strategic fit, design, tenure mix, costs, risks and rewards. You will prepare information for our scheme appraisal system to assess the financial dimensions and risks of each project, and oversee the acquisition process for land, property and other development opportunities – from contract negotiation through to due diligence and approvals.

You will also be instrumental in seeking new business and land opportunities, developing and managing key relationships, and maximising public and private sector funding to support our projects. Leading the Development Team with positivity and purpose, you will inspire and guide them to deliver exceptional results, helping us grow our portfolio and meet our vision for better homes and stronger communities.
