Salary: 100,000 - 115,000 + Package + Bonus



Overview

A Tier 1 engineering contractor turning over 80 million per year is looking to appoint a Sprinkler Projects Director to lead and expand its growing sprinkler division.

The sprinkler arm of the business is already delivering 8 million annually, with a strong secured pipeline and a clear strategy to scale the division significantly over the coming years. This appointment is a key part of that growth plan.

This role offers a clear route into a full Director-level leadership position, with responsibility not just for project delivery, but for shaping the future direction, performance and expansion of the sprinkler business unit.



The Opportunity

This is a leadership role suited to someone ready to step beyond project delivery and take ownership of an entire division.

You will:

  • Lead the delivery of sprinkler projects across commercial and data centre sectors

  • Take strategic control of programme, commercial performance and resource planning

  • Oversee Project Managers, engineers and specialist subcontractors

  • Drive operational standards, safety and technical quality

  • Work closely with senior leadership on growth strategy and business development

  • Support tendering, estimating and client engagement at a senior level

  • Build and develop a high-performing sprinkler delivery team

  • Play a key role in scaling the division beyond its current 8m turnover



Who This Role Suits

This opportunity is ideal for:

  • A Sprinkler Project Manager or Contracts Manager ready to step into a senior leadership role
    or

  • An experienced Operations Manager seeking a new challenge with more influence and long-term progression



Requirements

  • Strong background in sprinkler system project delivery

  • Experience in commercial and/or data centre environments

  • Good understanding of design, installation and commissioning of sprinkler systems

  • Proven ability to manage teams, programmes and commercial performance

  • Leadership mindset with ambition to grow a business unit

  • Confident communicator with client-facing experience



What's On Offer

  • 100,000 - 115,000 basic salary

  • Performance-related bonus

  • Travel expenses covered

  • Long-term progression into a Director-level leadership role

  • Influence over the growth and direction of a key business division

  • Backing of a financially strong Tier 1 engineering contractor

  • Strong pipeline of secured work

This is a rare opportunity to take control of a growing sprinkler division and shape its future within a major engineering business.
