Job Description
Contracts Manager - High-End Residential Landscaping - Cotswolds
Our client is a specialist landscaping contractor delivering high-end residential garden refurbishments across the West Midlands andamp; Cotswold region, and is looking for an experienced Contracts Manager to take ownership of a portfolio of projects worth up to a few million each.
You don't need a landscaping background for this role. The Site Managers and site teams bring the technical know-how. What the business needs is someone with a strong contractual grip who can run projects commercially, manage demanding private clients and keep delivery on track.
Key Responsibilities
- Take contractual ownership of multiple garden refurbishment projects from pre-start through to handover
- Review contracts and manage variations, notices and change control
- Work alongside the commercial team on valuations, cost reports and final accounts
- Lead and support Site Managers to deliver on programme, budget and quality
- Act as the main point of contact for clients, architects, garden designers and consultants
- Maintain Handamp;S, compliance and documentation across all sites
The Ideal Contracts Manager will have:
- Strong contractual experience
- A background in high-end residential, super-prime or similar quality-driven work
- Experience overseeing projects up to a few million in value
- Confidence managing private clients and their professional teams
- Landscaping experience is a bonus but not essential
