TDD Lead - Director (Building Surveying)

Director (Building Surveying) – TDD Lead

London

£Six figures + Strong Benefits + Bonus

We are pleased to be supporting the growth of a multidisciplinary commercial consultancy with the appointment of a ‘strategic hire’ – namely, a lead for Technical Due Diligence. This firm is a multi-office, well established and highly regarded property company, with incredibly longstanding and established relationships.

Working within the commercial, industrial and retail space, this senior hire, will be a key player in supporting the establishment of the service line, and will be expected to have strategic impetus in the TDD teams’ evolution and expansion.

The Building Surveying team in London is 50 people strong, so there exists an existing team and juniors to help in wider portfolio instructions. The brand and demand for the service line is already very strong, so this hire would not be expected to Business Develop from day one.

You’ll typically be expected to undertake the following:

• Effectively oversee projects from start to finish.
• Provide guidance, coordinate, and interpret input from external consultants when needed.
• Collaborate with property owners to support their Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) efforts, ensuring recommendations and implementations align with environmental sustainability goals.
• Grasp clients' business strategies and offer feasibility advice before purchases.
• Collaborate with colleagues, mentoring junior members, and assuming leadership responsibilities.
• Support team efforts in additional business endeavors as needed.

About you:

The ideal candidate will have extensive expertise in technical building surveying encompassing inspection, building pathology, construction technology (including environmental services), and legal and regulatory compliance.

You should have the capacity to examine intricate situations, evaluate risks, and provide guidance on the technical and regulatory aspects of the asset. This requires collaborating with and interpreting third-party reports and recommendations.

Experience of working as a Chartered Building Surveyor, having progressed within a comparable commercial, London-centric practice would be ideal.
