Real estate agency services on a fee or contract basis. The Ministry of Defence (MOD) is seeking a Development Manager to lead the preparation for sale and potential development of RAF Waterbeach, for housing, associated supporting uses and major infrastructure. The site, which is already vacant, is a former RAF station used as an Army barracks since the 1960's. The former airfield, including one complete paved runway, was used for training purposes. The Development Manager will be expected to work closely with the Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO), and will be required to fund, manage and lead the development to maximise the net value of the receipt, in return for a share of the net proceeds realised.
The site, and an area of adjacent non-MOD land, has been included in South Cambridgeshire District Council's (SCDC) draft local plan as a new settlement. The new settlement would deliver 8,000 to 9,000 residential units following the initial preparation by SCDC of an Area Action Plan to guide the scheme, of which approximately 7,500 units would be delivered in the Waterbeach site (290 hectares or 715 acres).The Development Manager will need to liaise with adjacent landowner(s) in order to progress the development as the new settlement scheme proposed in SCDC's draft local plan includes both MOD and third party land.
The Development Manager will also be expected to progress the current planning position, facilitate and/or build the infrastructure provision, provide strategic advice and leadership on the site development, manage the disposal process, construct part or all of the commercial aspects of the development and may also have the option of building up to 35 % of the residential units.
In addition, the MOD may, at its sole discretion, include other MOD land in this contract. This land may or may not form part of the Waterbeach development. Any additional land included is anticipated to be within a 30 mile radius of Waterbeach barracks and not to exceed the size of Waterbeach barracks (290 hectares / 715 acres).
