Leading commercial negotiations with clients, subcontractors and supply chain partners. Strengthening commercial governance, systems and best practice across the business. Supporting claims strategy, change management and dispute avoidance. Coaching and mentoring colleagues to further develop commercial capability across the organisation. This is a position where your judgement, commercial insight and experience will directly influence decisions at the highest level. Who we're looking for We're interested in experience, commercial judgement and credibility not job titles. You may currently be working as a: Commercial Manager Senior Commercial Manager Senior Quantity Surveyor Managing Quantity Surveyor Head of Commercial Commercial Director You'll most likely have built your career within civil engineering, infrastructure, utilities or major construction. You'll bring: Significant commercial leadership experience within a contractor environment. Strong knowledge of NEC contracts together with FIDIC and/or SBCC. Experience supporting pre-construction, major bids and commercial strategy. Excellent contractual negotiation and commercial risk management skills. The ability to influence senior stakeholders and build trusted relationships across commercial and operational teams.
