Senior CDM Consultant

Lead. Influence. Elevate Safe Design Across Landmark Projects.

Are you a seasoned CDM professional who wants your work to have real weight? Do you want to step into a consultancy where you shape design thinking, guide major project teams, and become a trusted voice at the table?

An ambitious, multi-disciplinary consultancy with a strong Midlands presence is strengthening its design risk and safety offering. Known for delivering innovative, high-profile schemes across the region, they are now searching for an experienced Senior Principal Designer / Senior CDM Consultant to help advance their mission: to raise the standard of safe, intelligent design across the built environment.

If you thrive in environments where ideas matter, responsibility is shared, and your expertise can genuinely shift outcomes, this opportunity will excite you.

Your Impact

Oversee and deliver Principal Designer duties across a diverse pipeline of commercial, civic, and regeneration projects.

Drive design risk management from day one, ensuring hazards are challenged early and addressed through smarter design solutions.

Work directly with architects, engineers, clients, and contractors, offering strategic CDM guidance and insight.

Develop structured, clear CDM documentation and project safety information.

Lead design risk reviews, workshops, and early-stage planning sessions.

Build strong, influential relationships with key project stakeholders.

Support the growth and development of more junior team members, shaping a modern approach to CDM delivery.

What You Bring

Background in construction, design, or health and safety, supported by recognised professional qualifications (NEBOSH, IOSH, APS, MCIOB, MCIAT etc).

Solid experience delivering Principal Designer and CDM advisory services.

Ability to engage confidently with design teams and senior stakeholders.

Strong communication skills and a solutions-focused mindset.

Prior consultancy experience or the ability to operate in a client-facing environment.

A commitment to raising standards and promoting better safety through intelligent design.

Why This Role Stands Out

This consultancy is growing, investing, and pushing for excellence. Here, you are not just delivering CDM services - you are influencing the future of design and construction across some of the region's most exciting schemes.

You can expect:

A clear path into higher leadership and strategic influence.

Projects that challenge your creativity and technical judgement.

A collaborative team that values new ideas and fresh thinking.

The opportunity to help shape and refine a thriving CDM offering.

For a driven professional who wants more than a routine consultancy role, this is a chance to make a genuine impact.
