Trainee/ Assistant Design Coordinator

Based in the Head Office in Hertfordshire | Site visits in London (1–2 days/week)

Looking to step into the world of design coordination but not quite sure where to begin? This is an exciting opportunity for someone with a foundational understanding of design or MEP who’s ready to grow and learn in a hands-on, fast-paced environment.

We’re supporting a well-established contractor in their search for a Junior / Trainee Assistant Design Coordinator to work closely with their Design and Project teams across London projects. This role is ideal for someone who sits between an apprentice and a full-blown Assistant Design Coordinator or Assistant Design Manager – someone green but switched-on, eager to learn and able to grow into the role with the right support.

What you’ll be doing:

• Shadow and support the Design Manager and wider team
• Help coordinate design information between consultants, subcontractors and site teams
• Attend design meetings and contribute to issue resolution
• Assist with document tracking, design queries and drawing reviews
• Gain experience on both general construction and MEP-focused packages

What we’re looking for:

• A junior candidate with some exposure to construction or design (could be from education, work placement or similar)
• A proactive attitude and willingness to ask questions and learn
• Comfortable based in the Hertfordshire head office, with site visits to London once or twice a week
• Confident, reliable, and keen to carve a long-term path in design coordination

The Offer:

• £25,000 – £35,000 depending on experience
• Travel expenses covered for site visits
• Real opportunity to grow within the business and take on more responsibility over time
• Immediate start available

If you're someone with the drive to learn and a genuine interest in building your career in design coordination, this is a fantastic opportunity to get your foot in the door with a supportive team and clear development path.
