🚨 Engineering Manager / Technical Manager – Regional Housebuilder | Cumbria
I’m currently working on a really strong opportunity with a well-established, privately owned regional housebuilder delivering timber-frame and traditional housing schemes across Cumbria and Lancashire.
This role sits within a growing Technical team and reports directly into the Development Director, offering genuine influence and the chance to help shape the department as the business continues to expand, with several new sites due to start this year.
💷 Package on offer:
• Basic salary £63,000
• Car allowance £4,000
• Bonus up to 20% (paid year on year – c. £12,600)
• Employer pension contribution 6%
• 25 days holiday + bank holidays
• Total package circa £82,000
(£69,600+ guaranteed excluding bonus)
This would suit someone with a strong background in residential engineering / technical management, comfortable overseeing multiple sites, coordinating external consultants and acting as a safe pair of hands within a small but growing team.
There’s real scope to step up, build out a team, and leave your mark as the business scales.
If this sounds like something you’d be open to exploring, drop me a message and I’ll happily talk you through the role in more detail and share the full brief.
