Senior Associate specialising in Real Estate Executive Search at Rockbourne

We’re proud to be partnering with one of the UK’s most dynamic real estate Development Managers, a delivery-led, design-savvy firm transforming high-potential urban spaces into thriving destinations across the country.

With a diverse pipeline of projects already underway from reimagined retail centres to mixed-use extra care schemes, they’re now looking to bring in a Senior Project Manager who can own the delivery of complex projects and grow into a senior leadership role over time.

This is a rare opportunity to join a business where you’re not just managing projects – you’re shaping places.

The Role

This is about turning vision into reality – and owning every detail of the journey.

You’ll be:

Leading the delivery of key redevelopment projects of a shopping and a growing extra care portfolio
Managing stakeholders ranging from pension funds and consultants to occupiers and planners
Taking projects from post-acquisition through to planning, construction, and PC
Working closely with senior leadership while gaining the autonomy to run your own show
Building a team around you – delivery now, leadership next.

This isn’t a project manager role – it’s broader. It’s about seeing the commercial and creative angles while getting stuck into the delivery detail.

What’s in it for you?

Total Exposure – From £1m refurbishments to £2bn masterplans, no two projects are the same. This is real breadth.

Tangible Progression – Start as a Senior Project Manager and grow into a Development Manager. The path is clear and the support is real.

Learn by Doing – This is a low-ego, high-impact environment. You’ll pick up planning, appraisals everything you need to become a 360 development individual.

Design Meets Delivery – Work on schemes that balance ROI with real placemaking – think cinemas, rooftops, and creative mixed-use spaces.

Non-Hierarchical Culture – Work directly with founders and senior DMs. No red tape. No corporate fluff.

What Do You Need to Bring?

Experience taking development schemes through planning and into delivery
Comfortable leading design teams, consultants, and contractors
Background in project or development management (client-side, consultancy, or agency)
Sector experience flexible – could be retail, residential, commercial, or care
Hunger to learn and grow – whether you’re a PM ready to step up or a DM who wants to broaden their skillset
Curious, hands-on mindset with an eye for detail and a drive to make things happen

The Package:

Bonus: discretionary
Location: London
Hybrid: 3 days in with 2 days out

If you want to do more than manage a process – if you want to shape places and grow a career that goes the distance – we’d love to hear from you.
