Are you interested in the built environment and looking for a way into the construction industry?
Do you enjoy problem-solving, working with people, and learning something new every day?
At Align Property Services, we're growing our CDM team and looking for a CDM Advisor to join us. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants to move into Construction Design & Management (CDM), even if you're at the early stages of your career.
You don't need to know everything on day one.
This role is ideal for someone with a background or interest in construction, design, property, housing, maintenance, project delivery, facilities, or health & safety who wants to build a career in a specialist and in-demand area. We'll provide training, mentoring, and a clear development plan to help you grow into the role and build your confidence.
You'll support our experienced CDM team in delivering CDM advisory and Principal Designer services across a wide range of construction and property projects. You'll be involved in real projects from day one, learning how to identify and manage design and construction risks while supporting clients, designers, and contractors.
This can be a development role, meaning you'll gain hands-on experience with the support of experienced professionals as your skills grow.
