This is more than a Commercial Manager role – it’s your chance to take the commercial lead of a successful £30m specialist civil engineering business, backed by the stability and resources of a £200m construction group.

- Lead all commercial activity across the division’s project portfolio.
- Drive profitability, forecasting, budgeting and commercial performance.
- Oversee procurement, subcontract management, contracts and risk.
- Partner with operational teams to maximise project outcomes.
- Develop and mentor the commercial team.
- Work alongside the Divisional MD to shape business strategy and future growth.
- Build lasting relationships with clients, suppliers and key stakeholders.
- Champion commercial governance and best practice.
You’ll already be operating as a Commercial Manager/Director or Commercial Lead with experience in civil engineering, infrastructure or specialist contracting.
You’ll bring:
- A proven track record of leading commercial teams and multiple projects.
- Strong commercial acumen with a focus on improving performance.
- Excellent NEC contract knowledge.
- The confidence to influence senior stakeholders and make strategic decisions.
- The ambition to help lead and grow a successful business.
