DIVISIONAL MANAGING DIRECTOR - REPAIRS / MAINTENANCE (SOCIAL HOUSING) Salary: 200,000- 220,000 base + Performance Bonus + Benefits Total Package Potential: 300,000 Location: Northern Home Counties / East Midlands Border (with regional and national travel) A Proven Campaign. Real Appointments. Continued Expansion. Following a highly successful recruitment campaign that delivered an exceptional shortlist and resulted in multiple senior appointments into the business, strengthening the Divisional Managing Director population and wider leadership structure, our client has now appointed several senior leaders and is seeking to appoint an additional Divisional Managing Director. This is not a replacement. It is the next step. The business has continued to grow, contracts have expanded, and the operational footprint has increased to the point where an additional Divisional Managing Director is required to ensure control, performance, and consistency at scale. This role exists because the business has outgrown its current leadership capacity - not because of under performance, but because of sustained expansion. Due to the strength of the previous campaign, we are already engaged with several relevant candidates. Individuals currently under consideration do not need to reapply. We welcome new applications from experienced operational leaders who can clearly demonstrate the impact required for this additional role. About the Business This is a fast-growing, privately owned property services business delivering responsive repairs, maintenance, and refurbishment across the UK. It has built its position through delivery, not presentation. The business combines: Operational intensity Commercial discipline Speed of decision-making It competes with national operators but retains the agility, visibility, and accountability of an owner-led organisation. This is not a corporate environment. There is no reliance on process for comfort. There is no distance between leadership and delivery. Leaders are expected to: Be visible Take ownership Deliver results Credibility is earned through performance - not title. Clients deal directly with decision-makers. This is a business where issues are resolved quickly, not escalated through layers. The Opportunity This role is fundamentally about running and optimising a live portfolio of contracts. You will inherit responsibility for a division comprising multiple clients, contracts, and operational teams, with a clear mandate to: Strengthen performance Improve consistency Maximise commercial outcomes Drive accountability across the operation Growth is part of the role - but not in isolation. This is not a role defined by chasing new work. Growth will come through: Maximising existing client relationships Capturing all available workstreams within current contracts Delivering consistently high service standards Creating the conditions for expansion through performance Opportunities will arise - including tenders and new contracts - but these are outcomes of delivery, not the sole focus. In the first 6-12 months, success will be defined by: - Improved contract performance and consistency - Stronger operational control across the division - Clear visibility of margin and cost drivers - Strengthened client relationships and retention What This Role Looks Like in Reality This is a high-volume, fast-paced service environment. Performance is visible daily. Issues surface quickly. Expectations are immediate. You will: Lead multi-region contracts and operational teams Take full accountability for service delivery, margin, and client outcomes Engage directly with clients, not through layers Identify issues early and act decisively Maintain control across cost, quality, and performance You will not operate from a distance. You will be in the operation - with teams, with clients, and close to delivery. You will set the tone for: Pace Standards Accountability This is not a role with a long runway. You will be expected to assess, act, and improve performance quickly. Context - Why This Role Exists Now The leadership team has been deliberately strengthened over the last phase, including multiple senior hires and internal promotions. The business now has: More contracts Greater scale Increased operational complexity The requirement now is not simply growth. It is control. This appointment ensures that contract portfolios are properly led, optimised, and supported as the business continues to scale. The Candidate You are an operational leader first. Not a strategist. Not a commentator. A doer. You have: Led large, complex service operations Managed multi-million-pound P&Ls Delivered measurable improvements in performance and profitability Operated in environments where service, cost, and delivery are constantly visible You are: Hands-on Decisive Commercially aware Comfortable under pressure You lead through presence and credibility - not hierarchy. This is not an opportunity for step-up candidates. It requires an individual who has already operated at scale and can demonstrate clear, measurable impact in comparable environments. Background You will come from an environment where: Delivery is measurable Performance is immediate Leadership is visible Examples include: Property services / maintenance / housing contractors Facilities management (reactive or operationally intensive) Utilities / infrastructure services Multi-site service operations Contract-led operational businesses Candidates currently operating within client-side roles in social housing providers, local authorities, or other public sector organisations will not be considered. This role requires experience gained within commercially driven, service delivery environments where accountability for performance, cost, and delivery sits directly with the operator. What matters is your ability to lead, control, and deliver. The Person Proven P&L ownership Strong operational grip across distributed teams Visible, credible leadership style Able to diagnose and fix performance issues quickly Commercially disciplined Resilient and delivery-focused Direct, clear communicator You take ownership. You do not wait for structure - you create it. Selection Process & Expectations This is a business-critical appointment. Candidates will be expected to demonstrate: Tangible improvements in operational performance Evidence of margin delivery and cost control Strong leadership of teams and succession development Measurable impact on customer satisfaction Contribution to contract performance and retention This is a role for proven operators.

What's on Offer Base Salary: 200,000 - 220,000 Performance Bonus linked to delivery and profitability Total Package: circa 300,000 including benefits Environment: Entrepreneurial Fast-paced High accountability Results-driven Why This Role This is not a start-up role. It is not a turnaround. It is a scale role. You are stepping into a business that is already performing - but now requires stronger, deeper operational leadership to sustain and improve that performance. You will: Take ownership of a significant part of the business Work alongside a strengthened senior leadership team Influence how performance is delivered at scale If you are a leader who delivers through pace, visibility, and accountability - this is where you will succeed. Final Point This is an additional appointment driven by growth. It requires someone ready to step in, take control, and deliver from day one. This is a role for leaders who step in, take control, and deliver. If that is how you operate, this is where you will succeed. Reference (phone number removed)

Imaginative Bid Writer & Bid Manager Salary: 100,000 - 120,000 (DOE) + Bonus + Benefits Location: Northern Home Counties / East Midlands (Hybrid Working Available) Most bids fail because they all sound the same. This role exists to change that. Imaginative Bid Writer & Bid Manager - This is not a standard Bid role This is an opportunity for a senior Bid Manager, Bid Writer, Proposals Manager or Head of Bids to take full ownership of how a growing business wins work. You will not be managing a process. You will be improving it. The Opportunity A growing, privately owned contract-led operational business operating across property services, social housing, repairs and maintenance, refurbishment, facilities services, and related outsourced operational environments is looking to appoint an Imaginative Bid Writer & Bid Manager to strengthen its work-winning capability. The business has built a strong reputation for delivery and is now entering a new phase of growth, supported by a strengthened senior leadership team. The focus now is on improving the quality, consistency, differentiation, and impact of bids. This role sits at the centre of that. What You Will Be Doing This is a hands-on, high-impact Bid Writing and Bid Management role where you will take full ownership of the bid process from start to finish. More importantly, you will improve how bids are done across the business. You will: Work directly with operational leaders, commercial teams, and senior stakeholders Extract real delivery insight, KPIs, case studies, and evidence Write and structure high-quality, compelling bid responses Develop win themes and differentiate submissions from competitors Improve how information is captured, stored, and reused Build consistency without introducing unnecessary bureaucracy Contribute to the overall commercial positioning of the business You will be expected to go into the business and extract what others miss, turn operational reality into compelling, differentiated bids, challenge inputs that are not strong enough, deliver high-quality submissions under pressure, and improve how the business approaches bidding, not just execute it. This is not about answering questions. It is about building submissions that win work. What Makes This Role Different Most Bid Manager or Bid Writer roles are process-led. This one is not. There is no interest in template-driven, corporate bidding approaches. You will not be sitting behind a system waiting for input. Instead, you will: Speak directly to the people delivering contracts Ask the right questions Challenge where necessary Build responses from real information You will also identify gaps in how the business presents itself and help improve that. Most bid roles are process-driven and sit within established teams. This one does not. You will be given ownership, visibility, and the opportunity to shape how a business wins work, working directly with senior leadership in a fast-moving environment.

Imaginative Bid Writer & Bid Manager Salary: 100,000 - 120,000 (DOE) + Bonus + Benefits Location: Northern Home Counties / East Midlands (Hybrid Working Available) Most bids fail because they all sound the same. This role exists to change that. Imaginative Bid Writer & Bid Manager - This is not a standard Bid role This is an opportunity for a senior Bid Manager, Bid Writer, Proposals Manager or Head of Bids to take full ownership of how a growing business wins work. You will not be managing a process. You will be improving it. The Opportunity A growing, privately owned contract-led operational business operating across property services, social housing, repairs and maintenance, refurbishment, facilities services, and related outsourced operational environments is looking to appoint an Imaginative Bid Writer & Bid Manager to strengthen its work-winning capability. The business has built a strong reputation for delivery and is now entering a new phase of growth, supported by a strengthened senior leadership team. The focus now is on improving the quality, consistency, differentiation, and impact of bids. This role sits at the centre of that. What You Will Be Doing This is a hands-on, high-impact Bid Writing and Bid Management role where you will take full ownership of the bid process from start to finish. More importantly, you will improve how bids are done across the business. You will: Work directly with operational leaders, commercial teams, and senior stakeholders Extract real delivery insight, KPIs, case studies, and evidence Write and structure high-quality, compelling bid responses Develop win themes and differentiate submissions from competitors Improve how information is captured, stored, and reused Build consistency without introducing unnecessary bureaucracy Contribute to the overall commercial positioning of the business You will be expected to go into the business and extract what others miss, turn operational reality into compelling, differentiated bids, challenge inputs that are not strong enough, deliver high-quality submissions under pressure, and improve how the business approaches bidding, not just execute it. This is not about answering questions. It is about building submissions that win work. What Makes This Role Different Most Bid Manager or Bid Writer roles are process-led. This one is not. There is no interest in template-driven, corporate bidding approaches. You will not be sitting behind a system waiting for input. Instead, you will: Speak directly to the people delivering contracts Ask the right questions Challenge where necessary Build responses from real information You will also identify gaps in how the business presents itself and help improve that. Most bid roles are process-driven and sit within established teams. This one does not. You will be given ownership, visibility, and the opportunity to shape how a business wins work, working directly with senior leadership in a fast-moving environment.

DIVISIONAL MANAGING DIRECTOR - REPAIRS / MAINTENANCE (SOCIAL HOUSING) Salary: 200,000- 220,000 base + Performance Bonus + Benefits Total Package Potential: 300,000 Location: Northern Home Counties / East Midlands Border (with regional and national travel) A Proven Campaign. Real Appointments. Continued Expansion. Following a highly successful recruitment campaign that delivered an exceptional shortlist and resulted in multiple senior appointments into the business, strengthening the Divisional Managing Director population and wider leadership structure, our client has now appointed several senior leaders and is seeking to appoint an additional Divisional Managing Director. This is not a replacement. It is the next step. The business has continued to grow, contracts have expanded, and the operational footprint has increased to the point where an additional Divisional Managing Director is required to ensure control, performance, and consistency at scale. This role exists because the business has outgrown its current leadership capacity - not because of under performance, but because of sustained expansion. Due to the strength of the previous campaign, we are already engaged with several relevant candidates. Individuals currently under consideration do not need to reapply. We welcome new applications from experienced operational leaders who can clearly demonstrate the impact required for this additional role. About the Business This is a fast-growing, privately owned property services business delivering responsive repairs, maintenance, and refurbishment across the UK. It has built its position through delivery, not presentation. The business combines: Operational intensity Commercial discipline Speed of decision-making It competes with national operators but retains the agility, visibility, and accountability of an owner-led organisation. This is not a corporate environment. There is no reliance on process for comfort. There is no distance between leadership and delivery. Leaders are expected to: Be visible Take ownership Deliver results Credibility is earned through performance - not title. Clients deal directly with decision-makers. This is a business where issues are resolved quickly, not escalated through layers. The Opportunity This role is fundamentally about running and optimising a live portfolio of contracts. You will inherit responsibility for a division comprising multiple clients, contracts, and operational teams, with a clear mandate to: Strengthen performance Improve consistency Maximise commercial outcomes Drive accountability across the operation Growth is part of the role - but not in isolation. This is not a role defined by chasing new work. Growth will come through: Maximising existing client relationships Capturing all available workstreams within current contracts Delivering consistently high service standards Creating the conditions for expansion through performance Opportunities will arise - including tenders and new contracts - but these are outcomes of delivery, not the sole focus. In the first 6-12 months, success will be defined by: - Improved contract performance and consistency - Stronger operational control across the division - Clear visibility of margin and cost drivers - Strengthened client relationships and retention What This Role Looks Like in Reality This is a high-volume, fast-paced service environment. Performance is visible daily. Issues surface quickly. Expectations are immediate. You will: Lead multi-region contracts and operational teams Take full accountability for service delivery, margin, and client outcomes Engage directly with clients, not through layers Identify issues early and act decisively Maintain control across cost, quality, and performance You will not operate from a distance. You will be in the operation - with teams, with clients, and close to delivery. You will set the tone for: Pace Standards Accountability This is not a role with a long runway. You will be expected to assess, act, and improve performance quickly. Context - Why This Role Exists Now The leadership team has been deliberately strengthened over the last phase, including multiple senior hires and internal promotions. The business now has: More contracts Greater scale Increased operational complexity The requirement now is not simply growth. It is control. This appointment ensures that contract portfolios are properly led, optimised, and supported as the business continues to scale. The Candidate You are an operational leader first. Not a strategist. Not a commentator. A doer. You have: Led large, complex service operations Managed multi-million-pound P&Ls Delivered measurable improvements in performance and profitability Operated in environments where service, cost, and delivery are constantly visible You are: Hands-on Decisive Commercially aware Comfortable under pressure You lead through presence and credibility - not hierarchy. This is not an opportunity for step-up candidates. It requires an individual who has already operated at scale and can demonstrate clear, measurable impact in comparable environments. Background You will come from an environment where: Delivery is measurable Performance is immediate Leadership is visible Examples include: Property services / maintenance / housing contractors Facilities management (reactive or operationally intensive) Utilities / infrastructure services Multi-site service operations Contract-led operational businesses Candidates currently operating within client-side roles in social housing providers, local authorities, or other public sector organisations will not be considered. This role requires experience gained within commercially driven, service delivery environments where accountability for performance, cost, and delivery sits directly with the operator. What matters is your ability to lead, control, and deliver. The Person Proven P&L ownership Strong operational grip across distributed teams Visible, credible leadership style Able to diagnose and fix performance issues quickly Commercially disciplined Resilient and delivery-focused Direct, clear communicator You take ownership. You do not wait for structure - you create it. Selection Process & Expectations This is a business-critical appointment. Candidates will be expected to demonstrate: Tangible improvements in operational performance Evidence of margin delivery and cost control Strong leadership of teams and succession development Measurable impact on customer satisfaction Contribution to contract performance and retention This is a role for proven operators. Evidence matters. Delivery matters. What's on Offer Base Salary: 200,000 - 220,000 Performance Bonus linked to delivery and profitability Total Package: circa 300,000 including benefits Environment: Entrepreneurial Fast-paced High accountability Results-driven Why This Role This is not a start-up role. It is not a turnaround. It is a scale role. You are stepping into a business that is already performing - but now requires stronger, deeper operational leadership to sustain and improve that performance. You will: Take ownership of a significant part of the business Work alongside a strengthened senior leadership team Influence how performance is delivered at scale If you are a leader who delivers through pace, visibility, and accountability - this is where you will succeed. Final Point This is an additional appointment driven by growth. It requires someone ready to step in, take control, and deliver from day one. This is a role for leaders who step in, take control, and deliver. If that is how you operate, this is where you will succeed. Reference (phone number removed)
