Are you looking for a senior leadership opportunity where you can influence strategy, shape culture and make a lasting impact?

We're looking for a highly driven, innovative and motivational Head of Commercial Operations to join our Building Drainage Division.

This is a pivotal leadership role, responsible for bringing together our customer-facing commercial functions into one high-performing team focused on delivering outstanding customer outcomes and commercial excellence.

Leading our Commercial Customer Service, Project Pricing and Design teams, you'll drive alignment, strengthen collaboration and champion continuous improvement across people, processes and systems. Working closely with the Divisional Managing Director and key stakeholders across Operations, Finance and IT, you'll identify opportunities to enhance efficiency, improve customer experience and support sustainable business growth.

This is more than an operational leadership role. It's an opportunity to influence how we work, develop our commercial capabilities and help shape the future direction of the division.

Key responsibilities include:

Leading, developing and inspiring commercial teams to perform at their very best.
Driving a culture of accountability, collaboration and continuous improvement.
Optimising systems, processes and ways of working to improve efficiency and customer outcomes.
Building strong cross-functional relationships to drive alignment and business performance.
Supporting customer retention and growth through exceptional service and commercial excellence.
Developing trusted partnerships with key customers and stakeholders.
Using data and insight to identify opportunities that improve profitability, efficiency and customer experience.
Playing a key role in shaping and delivering the division's commercial strategy.

Delivering process improvements that enhance performance, efficiency or profitability.
Coaching and developing teams to achieve their full potential.
Building effective relationships across multiple business functions.
Using commercial insight to support business growth and customer success.
Manufacturing experience and knowledge of multiple routes to market would be advantageous.
