ABOUT THE COMPANY

My client is a mid-sized, full-service general contracting, construction management, scheduling, and real estate development company with two offices, one being based in Westchester County, New York. They have been in business for over 30 years and have gained a great reputation across the ground-up/renovation residential market, predominantly affordable housing in New York City. The projects they focus on are in the Bronx, Manhattan, and Brooklyn and range anywhere from $5M – $100M.

ABOUT THE ROLE

This is a brilliant opportunity to have an impact on how a Pre-Construction department is run, a brilliant opportunity to implement your ideas and create your success. Your role will involve managing a small team of Estimators, helping them, developing them, working with them on bids, and improving them. You will need to coordinate the constructability and technical review of projects with engineering, interconnection, and development teams. The role also involves developing and managing, detailed schedules and budgets by existing company protocols. The bids you will be working on will range in value from $5M – $100M and the scope of work will be a mixture of ground-up affordable housing as well as interior & exterior renovations of affordable housing.

REQUIREMENTS

It’s an essential requirement that you have experience working as a Project Manager and as an Estimator, giving you an understanding and experience of the full life cycle of a project. I am looking for someone who has over 10 years’ of experience working on residential projects across New York City, ideally affordable housing projects.

REWARDS AND BENEFITS

This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who’s looking to make a difference, someone who’s looking for progression, and someone looking to make an impact on the way a company operates. My client has been trading for over 30 years so they have a good brand and reputation across New York City, this will offer you job stability and make your job easier when you’re creating bids. They are looking to pay anywhere in the region from $140,000 – $210,000 (this all depends on whether you’re a Project Manager looking to make a step up or an experienced Pre-Construction Director).

About Cityscape Recruitment

Cityscape Recruitment is not like any other construction recruitment agency. Our business does not have a sales-driven environment, instead, we reward quality over quantity.

We use our specialist industry knowledge to help introduce and guide construction professionals into companies that best suit their desired career aspirations and personal goals. From Quantity Surveyors to Site Managers to Civil Engineers, we work to the same objective of helping to enhance their careers.

And our relationships don’t end on day one of a new role – we pride ourselves on our ability to build long-lasting relationships with both clients and construction professionals. And we are fortunate enough to work with many leading construction companies and professionals in London and throughout the rest of the UK.

SUPPORTING THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY

Clients we work for

Our clients range from small, privately owned specialist contractors right up to top-tier PLCs responsible for shaping our country’s landscape.

What our clients say

We have worked with Alex Wallace and the Cityscape Recruitment team for a number of years now and find their service excellent.

They supply well matched and vetted candidates and very quickly understood all our requirements. They have always demonstrated good market knowledge and an ability to deliver to our requirements.

Commercial Director,
Main Contractor

I have used Cityscape Recruitment multiple times over the last 5 years. Very pleasant to deal with and all candidates put forward for interview are well suited to the position and well vetted by the team, so there is no time wasted with unsuitable applicants. I would highly recommend Cityscape. I intend to use them again in the future should any vacancies become available.

Operations Director,
Platt and Reilly Ltd

The Cityscape Recruitment team has always been great to deal with. Always ready to listen to our needs and requirements, a quality some recruiters do not appreciate or have, then advising where they can assist in our staff procurement. We look forward to working with Laura and Cityscape in the coming years.

Director,
Soilfix

When you first contact us, be that through direct contact, responding to an advert or applying through our website, we will connect you with a consultant who works in your specialist area. 

Initially, they will arrange a meeting to talk through your CV and career history. They will encourage you to go into detail about your background and experiences, capabilities and responsibilities, personal circumstances and any other factors they feel are relevant to help them build up a well-rounded profile of you. 

We take extraordinary care in matching professionals to an opportunity – one that will help enhance their careers and a clients’ team. We therefore also use this meeting to empower you in your career. Using our extensive knowledge of the construction industry, we would provide in-depth overviews of businesses, projects and available roles, and guidance on where your strengths will add the most value and career potential. 

After this meeting, the consultant will speak to a number of their clients about you and your CV. Who they speak to can be either jointly agreed upon or you can trust the judgement and expertise of the consultant to contact clients they feel are the best fit for your experience and goals.

If any clients are interested in meeting with you, the consultant will manage the interview process, coaching you before any interviews if required. (Further guidance can be found here.)

If you are successful in receiving an offer(s), our consultant will communicate this with you and help to negotiate the offer(s) and any other terms of employment. 

Finally, we will support you in resigning from your current role, navigating potential counter offers and starting your new role.
