Design Manager

The Role: What You'll Lead and Deliver
  • Oversee the design delivery of 60+ projects annually — spanning dual occupancies, custom builds, renovations, and secondary dwellings
  • Manage and mentor external drafting consultants, ensuring timely, compliant, and cost-aware documentation
  • Champion NCC compliance and robust documentation discipline across all design outputs
  • Collaborate closely with estimating and site teams to ensure feasibility, clarity, and constructability
  • Lead the creation of typical details, documentation standards, and templated outputs to improve repeatability and reduce variation
  • Incorporate site feedback into ongoing design evolution — closing the loop between drawing board and delivery
  • Support efficient project handover, working with the New Business and Project Management teams to transition from design to execution seamlessly

About You
  • Experienced architect or Senior Draftsperson (min. 8 years' experience), with strong residential Class 1A/B experience
  • Solution-oriented and commercially aware — you design with budgets, timeframes, and delivery in mind
  • Confident managing drafting consultants and internal design workflows across multiple concurrent projects
  • Skilled in ArchiCAD (or similar BIM software), with a deep understanding of NCC, DCPs, and council processes
  • Passionate about systemising design — creating templates, details, and standards that support scale and consistency
  • Comfortable walking sites, engaging with trades, and learning from the ground up
  • Driven by outcomes, clarity, and continuous improvement

Why Join Endeavour Build
  • Contribute to a company that puts clarity, certainty, and wealth creation at the centre of every build
  • Be a key player in standardising smarter design for scale and delivery
  • Lead the charge in bridging architecture and construction — with real collaboration, not handballing
  • Be supported by a leadership team that values operational excellence, transparency, and innovation
  • See your work not just drawn — but built, tested, improved, and repeated
