About the Role
Are you looking to step into a high-impact role on a major development project? At Clarion Housing Group, we offer the opportunity to contribute to a landmark new settlement that will shape the future of housing. We’re seeking a Project Manager to support the development of one of Clarion’s new, residentially led, major projects.
This is a rare opportunity to work client-side on one of the UK’s largest new community developments: Tendring and Colchester Borders, a scheme of approximately 8,000 homes alongside major infrastructure, schools, commercial, and community buildings.
You will be part of the Project Management and Cost Management team, reporting to the Project Lead and working alongside colleagues in Development Management and Finance under the Project Director.
The role involves leading the delivery of defined sub-projects within the wider masterplan from initial brief through procurement, design, and construction, with a particular focus on cost control, commercial management, and consultant coordination. You will manage consultant QS teams, monitor programme and budget, and support contractual negotiations to ensure value and risk are managed effectively.
Clarion is dedicated to rewarding hard work and commitment, offering benefits that support you and your lifestyle. We also support the responsible use of AI in our work.

Familiarity with the contracting market and contract management to convert projects into contracts.

About you
Skilled in creating realistic project programmes and overseeing their execution.
Ability to lead and coordinate consultant teams and work collaboratively across multiple disciplines.
Committed to delivering high-quality outcomes while managing value and risk.
