Shape Design. Influence Safety. Lead Projects That Matter. Are you the kind of CDM professional who wants more than just "another project"? Do you want to work at the heart of a consultancy where your voice carries weight, your ideas shape national projects, and your expertise genuinely changes how buildings are designed? A leading multi-disciplinary consultancy with a major presence across the Midlands is expanding its design risk and health and safety function. They work on some of the most diverse, high-profile schemes in the region, from transformative public sector developments to cutting-edge commercial and regeneration projects. Their ambitions are bold, their team is growing, and they are now searching for a senior figure who wants to help drive the next chapter. If you want to step into a position where you influence design strategy, lead client relationships, and guide project teams towards safer, smarter construction, this is the role for you. What You Will Lead Take full ownership of Principal Designer duties across a varied portfolio of impactful projects. Champion safety in design from concept to completion, ensuring risk is identified, challenged, and meaningfully addressed. Guide architects, clients, and contractors with confidence, helping shape design decisions at the earliest stages. Deliver clear, compelling CDM documentation, design risk registers, and strategic safety advice. Facilitate H&S design reviews and steer collaborative workshops with multi-disciplinary teams. Build long-term relationships with clients who rely on your insight and leadership. Mentor junior team members and support the continuous improvement of the service offering. What You Bring A strong background in construction, design, or health and safety, backed by relevant qualifications (IOSH, APS, NEBOSH, MCIOB, MCIAT etc). Proven experience delivering CDM services and Principal Designer duties. Confidence navigating complex design environments and influencing senior stakeholders. Excellent communication skills and the ability to create clarity in technical situations. Consultancy experience or the ability to operate in a client-facing role. A genuine passion for improving design outcomes and raising industry standards. Why This Opportunity Stands Out This is not a static role. It is not a box-ticking environment. It is a chance to step into a respected, design-driven consultancy where you become a key figure in shaping how safety is integrated across major UK projects. You will have: A clear pathway for progression into a leadership position. Exposure to a wide range of schemes that challenge and inspire. A supportive, forward-thinking team that values innovation. The chance to influence the direction of an already well-established service line. If you are ambitious, proactive, and want your work to have real impact, you will thrive here. Apply Today If this sounds like the kind of environment where you could excel, we would love to hear from you. Send your CV and salary expectations to learn more. Your next big career move could start right here.
