Greater London / Global

Technical Manager

Job Description

Technical Manager – Strategic Land Delivery.

London.

Cognisant has partnered with a leading strategic land developer seeking a hands‑on Technical Manager to lead the delivery of large‑scale, residential and mixed‑use sites from planning consent through enabling infrastructure and preparation for disposal. This is a high‑impact, end‑to‑end technical role at a master developer, not a typical housebuilder.

What you’ll do:

Lead the technical delivery of multiple strategic land sites, including site servicing, infrastructure, and enabling works

Coordinate closely with planning, commercial, and infrastructure teams to ensure sites are market‑ready

Manage consultants, contractors, and internal teams to deliver quality, cost, and programme targets

Provide technical input into commercial appraisals, valuations, and site disposal strategy

Identify risks, constraints, and opportunities across the portfolio

Who we’re looking for:

Technical, Project or Development Manager with proven experience delivering strategic land or larger‑scale residential/mixed‑use sites

Strong understanding of infrastructure and site servicing

Experienced in managing consultants, contractors, and multidisciplinary teams

Commercially aware, able to provide technical guidance into appraisals, budgets, and disposal strategy

Ideally, experience working for a master developer or on sites where you’ve delivered enabling works for sale

This is not a standard housebuilder role – you’ll have end‑to‑end technical responsibility across high‑profile projects and play a key role in shaping both delivery and long‑term value.
