Job description

Shape a customer-focused approach to global delivery

An incredible role, with global impact. This is your opportunity to lead the teams that design technical security and engineering solutions, reinforce embassies against seismic activity and hostile threats, deliver critical infrastructure upgrades in active crisis zones, and manage multimillion‑pound secure construction programmes across challenging locations. Commit to work that matters.

You will lead a broad portfolio that covers engineering, construction, architecture, design, security systems and project management. Previously, weve replaced radar domes on the Falklands, a visible deterrent, crucial for security. And were working on a rebuild of an embassy in a new location in Tokyo. These are the types of projects that youll see realised. Youll be working for a singular, vital purpose, which is to keep the UK safe. As adversaries advance, we need to do our utmost to keep up with new developments and secure our systems.

Through a close partnership with peers and senior stakeholders, youll oversee that projects and programmes achieve agreed outcomes, timescales, and budgets. Youll improve customer relationships and increase the value that we add to both the FCDO and other customers across government. Plus, youll uphold the organisations technical and professional integrity by maintaining robust engineering and sustainability standards that meet current and future customer requirements.

You will be accountable for an operational and delivery budget of approximately £60m and for leading a team of around 300 people. As a leader, you will ensure ministerial targets are met, drive innovation and continuous improvement, and promote a strong health and safety culture to keep our people working safely around the world.

Join us and youll do purpose-led work, every day. Youll face challenges and feel proud when you resolve them. Lead global design and build projects, inspire a high‑performing team, and leave a lasting legacy in keeping the UK safe overseas.

Bring strong leadership and engineering expertise

To be successful in the role, youre a driven individual, excited to bring strong leadership to engineering and operations. Youre a proactive, motivated by purpose, and have an eye for even the smallest details.

Youll bring extensive senior operational management experience with a track record of leading a business and multidisciplinary teams at a strategic level, including large budget responsibility

Youll have a degree in engineering, construction management, architecture or significant demonstrable experience in one or more of these fields.

Project experience is critical. Youve led large-scale project and programme delivery in the UK and overseas, understanding and adapting to different requirements. Plus, youve ensured performance meets or exceeds customer, business and personal goal metrics in a global, complex project delivery environment. You have a proven ability to convert business opportunities into secure and sustainable projects and services. Your pragmatic approach is paired with exceptional commercial acumen and financial management skills.

As a leader, youll have strong interpersonal and communication skills. You know just how to empower, develop, and influence your team. And at a senior level, you can have a personal, credible impact.
