A strengthened leadership team. A clear pathway for the next generation of operational leaders. Following a highly successful senior leadership recruitment campaign, our client is now seeking to appoint an additional Business Unit Managing Director as part of its continued operational expansion strategy.

The business has built its reputation through: Delivery Pace Accountability Commercial discipline Strong client relationships It competes successfully against major national contractors whilst retaining the agility, visibility, and decisiveness of an owner-led organisation. This is not a heavily layered corporate environment. Leaders are expected to: Be visible Take ownership Solve problems quickly Drive standards Improve performance Operational leadership within the organisation is highly hands-on. Leaders remain close to delivery, operational teams, and clients rather than operating from a distance. The opportunity The Business Unit Managing Director will take responsibility for a substantial operational portfolio, supporting Divisional Managing Directors whilst leading operational teams, strengthening accountability, and improving operational and commercial performance. The role combines: Significant operational ownership Leadership responsibility Commercial accountability Client visibility Increasing strategic exposure This is not a purely strategic leadership role.

The successful individual will help improve operational consistency beneath divisional leadership level, strengthen middle-management capability, and reduce over-reliance on senior leadership intervention. The role also offers exposure to: Divisional planning Operational transformation Leadership development Growth strategy Commercial performance improvement For the right individual, this represents a genuine progression opportunity toward broader divisional leadership over time. Why the role exists The business has reached a point where stronger operational infrastructure beneath divisional level is essential. Contracts are growing. Operational complexity is increasing. Client expectations continue to rise. The organisation has recognised the need to strengthen: Leadership depth Operational resilience Succession capability Contract performance consistency Middle-management accountability This role forms a key part of that strategy. The role in practice You will: Lead operational teams across repairs, maintenance, voids, or planned works contracts Support Contract Managers and operational leadership teams Improve operational control, structure, and accountability Drive productivity, scheduling performance, workflow efficiency, and service standards Build and maintain strong client relationships Resolve operational issues proactively and decisively Support commercial performance, margin improvement, and operational efficiency Contribute toward operational improvement initiatives and future growth planning This is a fast-paced operational environment. Performance is visible. Client expectations are high. Operational issues surface quickly. Success requires balancing: Operational detail Commercial awareness People leadership Client management Pace of execution Who this role will suit This role is intentionally positioned beneath full Divisional Managing Director level. However, it is not a lightweight operational management role. It is designed for experienced, confident, high-potential operational leaders ready for broader exposure and responsibility. You may currently be operating as: Senior Operations Manager Regional Operations Manager Head of Operations Contract Director Regional Director Business Unit Director Senior Contract Manager Operations Director You will likely already have: Strong operational leadership experience Exposure to commercial accountability Experience managing field-based or operationally intensive teams Client-facing operational leadership capability Experience improving performance, structure, or accountability within operations Most importantly, you will have presence. You will be somebody who: Takes ownership Operates with pace and urgency Communicates clearly Holds people accountable Builds credibility quickly Is commercially aware Improves operational performance without unnecessary bureaucracy The successful individual does not necessarily need previous Divisional Managing Director experience but must demonstrate capability, ambition, credibility, and learning agility to grow into broader operational leadership responsibilities over time.

Leaders are expected to: Be visible Take ownership Solve problems quickly Drive standards Improve performance Operational leadership within the organisation is highly hands-on. Leaders remain close to delivery, operational teams, and clients rather than operating from a distance. The opportunity The Business Unit Managing Director will take responsibility for a substantial operational portfolio, supporting Divisional Managing Directors whilst leading operational teams, strengthening accountability, and improving operational and commercial performance. The role combines: Significant operational ownership Leadership responsibility Commercial accountability Client visibility Increasing strategic exposure This is not a purely strategic leadership role.

The role in practice You will: Lead operational teams across repairs, maintenance, voids, or planned works contracts Support Contract Managers and operational leadership teams Improve operational control, structure, and accountability Drive productivity, scheduling performance, workflow efficiency, and service standards Build and maintain strong client relationships Resolve operational issues proactively and decisively Support commercial performance, margin improvement, and operational efficiency Contribute toward operational improvement initiatives and future growth planning This is a fast-paced operational environment. Performance is visible. Client expectations are high. Operational issues surface quickly. Success requires balancing: Operational detail Commercial awareness People leadership Client management Pace of execution Who this role will suit This role is intentionally positioned beneath full Divisional Managing Director level. However, it is not a lightweight operational management role. It is designed for experienced, confident, high-potential operational leaders ready for broader exposure and responsibility. You may currently be operating as: Senior Operations Manager Regional Operations Manager Head of Operations Contract Director Regional Director Business Unit Director Senior Contract Manager Operations Director You will likely already have: Strong operational leadership experience Exposure to commercial accountability Experience managing field-based or operationally intensive teams Client-facing operational leadership capability Experience improving performance, structure, or accountability within operations Most importantly, you will have presence. You will be somebody who: Takes ownership Operates with pace and urgency Communicates clearly Holds people accountable Builds credibility quickly Is commercially aware Improves operational performance without unnecessary bureaucracy The successful individual does not necessarily need previous Divisional Managing Director experience but must demonstrate capability, ambition, credibility, and learning agility to grow into broader operational leadership responsibilities over time.
