  • 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.
