  • Building and nurturing long-term client relationships while ensuring best-in-class project execution and governance.

You will bring:

  • A strong track record of senior-level leadership in the construction, energy, or building controls sector.
  • Proven experience delivering major projects, with an ability to drive commercial performance and operational efficiency.
  • Sharp business acumen with an analytical mindset and clear understanding of P&L, forecasting, and KPIs.
  • Excellent interpersonal and influencing skills, with the ability to collaborate across technical and non-technical teams.
  • A full UK driving licence and the flexibility to travel across sites nationwide.
