Acoustics Team Lead

VACANCY REF: CK3543456

We are working on a confidential basis with a well-established, multi-disciplinary consultancy to explore the launch of a new Acoustics offering in Manchester.

• This is not a replacement hire.
• This is a growth opportunity.

We are keen to speak with:

• A Senior / Associate / Director-level Acoustician
• An existing small team within a consultancy
• Or an independent boutique acoustics practice considering the next step

The Opportunity

Our client has an established national platform and strong cross-discipline presence across:

• Commercial
• Residential
• Education
• Healthcare
• Mixed-use development

The Manchester office is performing strongly, and there is clear demand from existing clients for in-house acoustics capability.

Rather than bolt-on recruitment, this is an opportunity to:

• Establish and shape a regional acoustics team
• Leverage an existing client base and secured pipeline
• Build a long-term regional presence
• Influence strategy and growth

Who This Could Suit

• A senior individual frustrated by ceiling limitations in their current practice
• A small acoustics consultancy seeking succession support or infrastructure backing
• A team looking for greater autonomy within a larger, stable platform

You will likely bring:

• Strong project delivery across environmental and/or building acoustics
• Established client relationships
• Commercial awareness and ambition to grow
• Chartered status (or working towards)

What’s On Offer

• Autonomy to shape your own team
• National brand backing and cross-selling opportunity
• Investment commitment from leadership
• Clear pathway to long-term senior leadership

All conversations will be handled in strict confidence.

If you are open to a discreet discussion about building something meaningful in Manchester, please message directly.
