Design Manager, Healthcare Design-Build - Permanent - 19663
About The Opportunity
Greater Toronto Area, Canada | Relocation and immigration supported
In design-build, the Design Manager is the reason the bid price holds up once the job is on site. Our client is a design-build contractor in the Greater Toronto Area. They’re coming off a run of major public infrastructure awards and are building a healthcare group to match Ontario’s hospital program, which is close to $60 billion over the next decade. They want a Design Manager who has already done this work in a mature healthcare market.
Duties include but are not limited to:
- You manage design development and coordination on major healthcare projects, from pursuit through construction
- You work with the bid team from day one, so the design you priced is the design you deliver
- You lead the architects, engineers and specialist consultants, and you hold them to the schedule and the cost plan
- You turn clinical and user-group requirements into decisions the site can build
- You’re based in the GTA within a growing design-build group, with relocation fully supported
About You
The successful candidate will have the following:
- You’ve been a Design Manager or Senior Design Manager on UK or Irish healthcare work at a Tier 1 contractor
- You know HTM/HBN in practice, not just in the spec, and you’ve managed clinical sign-off without losing months to it
- You’ve run design through the RIBA stages on a design-and-build contract and protected the contractor’s position while doing it
- You’ve seen what happens when design management sits too far from the bid, and you’d rather sit next to it
About The Job
- Early involvement on every pursuit, so you’re not inheriting a design someone else priced
- A decade of hospital pipeline in a market that’s only getting started
- Relocation, immigration support and a full family transition, plus a newcomer program that helps you get settled with housing, schools, health coverage and banking
- Toronto living: lake country summers, four real seasons and one of the most diverse cities in the world
- A competitive base plus bonus, discussed on the first call
