About the Role

Join a forward-thinking homebuilder's expanding timber-frame division focused on sustainable, high-quality off-site manufactured timber-framed homes. You'll play a key role in delivering accurate, buildable timber frame designs that drive both manufacturing and site installation teams.

The Role
  • Produce precise timber frame design drawings and construction information for manufacturing and site teams.
  • Interpret architectural and engineering information to create accurate panel, joist and roof truss designs.
  • Supply clear design data to planning and scheduling teams to support efficient production programmes.
  • Ensure designs align with technical standards, building regulations and warranty requirements (eg, NHBC).
  • Collaborate closely with internal teams - engineering, production, site management - to resolve technical queries and maintain momentum.
  • Produce schedules, cutting lists, and detailed design outputs to support manufacturing and delivery.
About You
  • Proven experience in timber frame detailing and design, ideally within residential or off-site construction.
  • Proficiency with Autodesk platforms (Revit, AutoCAD) or equivalent design software.
  • Strong understanding of UK Building Regulations and structural principles relevant to timber frame systems.
  • Excellent attention to detail and ability to work to deadlines in a dynamic production environment.
  • Effective communication skills and a collaborative approach to working with cross-functional teams.
Why Join
  • Be at the heart of a growing timber frame operation supporting modern, sustainable housing solutions.
  • Work with advanced design tools and industry-leading design standards.
  • Opportunities for career growth, professional development, and a supportive work culture.
  • Competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits.
