Miss one and suddenly everyone''s pointing fingers.This is a small, boutique construction management business. They''re delivering prime 500k- 3m projects for wealthy London clients. They''ve built a reputation for being decent to deal with - nice people, nice work, nice clients. Now they need a Contracts Manager who can keep the commercial wheels spinning without drowning everyone in legalese.Your daily battles: Negotiating contracts so watertight you could sail them down the Thames. Procurement - i.e., persuading suppliers that lead time doesn''t mean we''ll see you in a month. Keeping cost reports spotless, even when the spec changes every other week. Spotting risk early enough to avoid that 9pm we''ve got a problem phone call.What you''ll need: Contracts / commercial experience in construction (prime resi ideally). The ability to negotiate firmly but fairly - think velvet glove, iron fist. Detail-driven, organised, and not allergic to Excel. Professional qualifications are a plus, but a track record of keeping projects on budget packs more punch.What you''ll get: A genuinely nice, tight-knit team - no egos, no politics. A seat at the table shaping how things are done (not just following the way we''ve always done it). Prime, high-profile projects where detail actually matters.
