Contracts Manager (who can estimate) High-End Residential Hybrid Equity Opportunity Most construction businesses say they want somebody to "grow with the company". This one is offering them a stake in it. I'm working with an award-winning contractor operating in the prime residential and light commercial fit-out sectors. Established since 2007, they've built an excellent reputation through repeat business, negotiated work and long-standing relationships with respected architects and interior designers. Turnover has grown from 2.3m last year to over 5m this year, with a clear ambition to reach 10m whilst maintaining quality and profitability. The owner has reached the point where he wants to step away from estimating and commercial management and bring in somebody capable of becoming his right-hand person. This isn't a corporate role. It's six direct employees, a friendly hands-on team, in-house joinery workshop, regular meetings, quick decisions and people who have stayed with the business for more than 15 years. The projects typically range from 300k to 2m across high-end residential refurbishments and selected commercial fit-out schemes. The ideal person will understand estimating, surveying and commercial management. You don't necessarily need to be an expert in every area, but you do need a strong understanding of how construction projects are won, procured, commercially managed and successfully delivered. You'll also be comfortable representing the business, building relationships and helping raise the company's profile within the market. They're not expecting you to arrive with a black book full of clients. The projects and leads already exist. They simply want somebody who can become part of the future growth of the business. This role would particularly suit somebody from a smaller contractor background, somebody who enjoys variety, autonomy and responsibility, or perhaps somebody who has previously run their own business and misses construction more than bookkeeping and payroll. Salary is very much negotiable - depending on experience (I'd say sub- 100k initially but no boundaries have been set), with equity discussions available for the right person. If you've ever looked at your employer and thought, "I'd do this differently if it were my business", this might be your chance. Interested? Happy to have a discreet chat.
