About JustPark JustPark is the premier partner offering both B2B solutions for destinations and B2C services for drivers, giving us the best of both worlds. We simplify the entire parking experience. From venues and councils to private driveways, our platform makes it simple for drivers to find, book, and pay for parking-while empowering our operating partners to deliver exceptional parking experiences. We've always believed parking should be easier-from end to end. That's why we, two trailblazing companies-ParkHub and JustPark-have come together to make that vision a reality. ParkHub revolutionized event parking in the US; optimizing venue operations for a smoother, stress-free experience. JustPark transformed parking in the UK, turning the hunt for a spot into a simple, seamless task. Now, as one unified company, we're combining expertise to offer a full-service, frictionless parking solution for both businesses and consumers. About the Role We're looking for a Head of Engineering (Demand) to lead the engineering teams that power the demand side of JustPark's UK platform.

Bennett and Game Recruitment LTD
Whiteley, Hampshire
If you have spent your career in architecture or architectural technology and you are ready to step into a role where your technical knowledge genuinely shapes how buildings are made safer, this is worth your attention. Our client is one of the UK's most progressive principal contractors in the facade remediation sector. Backed by a listed parent group with a turnover exceeding 600 million, this is a business with the financial strength of a major contractor and the pace and culture of a modern, forward-thinking team. Work is secured through to 2028, with project values up to 22 million across residential towers, stadiums, commercial schemes and public sector developments. As Design Manager, you will be the bridge between design intent and safe, compliant, buildable delivery. Your fluency in technical drawings, design coordination and stakeholder management will be central to how these projects succeed, while your understanding of facade systems and building regulations puts you ahead of the curve from day one. Why Make the Move from Architecture? Many talented architects and architectural technologists reach a point where ambition outgrows what a traditional practice can offer. If that resonates, here is what a move into contracting can give you: Significantly stronger earning potential. Salaries in contractor-side design management consistently outpace those in private practice, with clear routes to progress further. Real project ownership. You are not producing drawings for someone else to deliver. You are at the centre of delivery, with direct influence over outcomes. Broader exposure. Working across multiple live projects simultaneously builds commercial awareness, programme management skills and stakeholder experience that practice rarely offers at the same pace. Tangible impact. Facade remediation is one of the most meaningful areas of construction right now. The work you do directly contributes to making people's homes and buildings safer. Long-term career development. This employer invests heavily in training, mentoring and progression, with a genuine people-first culture to back it up. What makes this employer stand out is its people-first culture . Weekly cultural feedback shapes decisions at senior leadership level, and the business has genuine ambitions to be recognised as one of the Times Top 100 Places to Work . Development, mentoring and long-term careers are taken seriously here.
