Pre-Construction Manager (active)
Confirmed on the employer's own hiring board on Oct 14, 2026. First seen by Alion on Sep 9, 2026.
Since 2016, Harmony Fire has grown to become one of the UK’s leading life safety contractors, delivering passive fire protection, building fabric and M&E works across residential, social housing, commercial and public sector markets. We hold a Two Star Outstanding Company to Work For accreditation from Best Companies and we are growing fast - and we’re looking for A-players to help us get there. Our mission is simple: every resident should be able to sleep safely at night, knowing their home is 100% compliant and protected. That is what drives everything we do. We now have an opportunity for Pre-Construction Managers (multiple positions) to join our growing West Midlands pod, owning passive fire protection projects end-to-end from initial scope development through to handover into delivery. Based out of our Dudley office, you will work closely with our Pre-Construction Director and wider pod as we build out the West Midlands operation. This is more than a delivery role. It is about bringing the right energy, accountability and resilience to our mission of saving lives through fire and height safety.
- Own each allocated project from scope development through to PCI pack completion and handover into delivery.
- Develop scopes of work for passive fire protection projects that are accurate, compliant, commercially optimised and fit for the delivery team to execute without ambiguity.
- Prepare pricing, scope build-ups and commercial positions for all allocated projects, approving within delegated authority and escalating above threshold to the Pre-Construction Director with a clear recommendation.
- Act as the day-to-day client contact on all allocated projects, running Pre-Construction Calls with a structured agenda and capturing all decisions and scope agreements in writing.
- Line manage pod-aligned estimators, setting clear objectives and holding them accountable to quality and timeline. • Coordinate surveyors, workflow and admin support across your projects within the pod model.
- Maintain forecast accuracy and report weekly on live projects in line with Harmony’s forecasting requirements.
- Ensure all project records and commercial activity are kept current and accurate in Salesforce.
- Contribute positively to the wider West Midlands pod and pre-construction function, sharing knowledge and supporting continuous improvement.
