Full job description

Overview:

We are seeking a Business Unit Director to lead and grow a strategically critical nuclear business unit within Expleo’s UK operation. This role combines front‑end market leadership and business winning with full accountability for operational delivery, financial performance and team leadership.

This is not a pure sales role — and not a delivery‑only leadership position. You will own the full lifecycle: shaping market strategy, winning complex work, building trusted client partnerships, and ensuring programmes are delivered safely, profitably and to the highest nuclear standards.

You will operate as a senior leader within the nuclear leadership community, responsible for translating market opportunity into a scalable, high‑performing business unit with strong culture, capability depth and repeatable growth.

The Role

As Business Unit Director, you hold end‑to‑end accountability for a defined nuclear portfolio, including:

Business growth and market positioning
Winning and securing major programmes and frameworks
Operational delivery performance and client outcomes
Financial results (revenue, margin, cost and risk)
Leadership, development and engagement of multidisciplinary teams

You will work closely with executive leadership, delivery leaders, engineering authorities and commercial teams to ensure Expleo is positioned as a long‑term strategic partner across the UK nuclear landscape.

This is a high‑impact leadership role requiring credibility at board, programme and regulatory levels, and the ability to balance commercial ambition with nuclear safety, quality and delivery integrity.

Responsibilities:

Business Unit Leadership & Strategy

Own and lead a defined nuclear business unit with full P&L accountability
Develop and execute a clear business unit strategy aligned to UK nuclear market priorities and Expleo’s wider growth objectives
Set growth targets, delivery plans and capability roadmaps to support sustainable scale
Act as a visible senior leader internally and externally, representing Expleo across the nuclear ecosystem

Business Winning & Market Growth

Lead major business winning activity, from early client engagement through to contract award
Shape and approve win strategies, bid priorities, partner models and commercial approaches
Secure and grow positions on:
- Nuclear frameworks and alliances
- Long‑term service agreements
- Multi‑year engineering, safety and consultancy programmes
Maintain a deep understanding of:
- Client investment plans
- Procurement strategies
- Regulatory and funding drivers
Build a robust, forward‑looking pipeline aligned to long‑term nuclear programmes

Operational Delivery & Performance

Hold ultimate accountability for the successful delivery of all work within the business unit
Ensure programmes are delivered:
- Safely
- On time
- To quality standards
- Within agreed commercial parameters
Work closely with delivery and technical leaders to ensure:
- Appropriate resourcing and capability
- Strong governance and risk management
- Continuous improvement in delivery performance
Act as senior escalation point for delivery, commercial or client issues

Client & Stakeholder Leadership

Own senior‑level relationships with:
- Nuclear site licensees
- Tier 1 EPCs and integrators
- Framework and alliance leads
- Government bodies and regulators (where appropriate)
Position Expleo as a trusted delivery and advisory partner, not a transactional supplier
Ensure high levels of client satisfaction, repeat business and long‑term account growth

People & Capability Leadership

Lead, mentor and develop senior managers, account leads and delivery leaders within the business unit
Build a high‑performing, engaged and safety‑led culture
Identify capability gaps and support recruitment, succession planning and skills development
Promote collaboration across engineering, safety, consultancy and delivery disciplines

Essential skills:

Demonstrable success in:
- Winning and growing major nuclear programmes
- Leading complex delivery organisations
- Managing P&L and commercial risk
Strong understanding of:
- UK nuclear governance and regulation
- Nuclear procurement and contracting models
- Safety, quality and assurance expectation
Credibility & Leadership:
- Established senior‑level network across the UK nuclear ecosystem
- Ability to engage credibly with executive, commercial and technical decision‑makers
- Seen as a leader who balances commercial drive with delivery excellence and nuclear integrity
- Confident operating in complex, regulated and politically sensitive environments

Desired skills:

Strategic, commercially astute and delivery‑focused
Strong influencer and decision‑maker
Resilient, accountable and comfortable with ambiguity
Values‑led, with a clear commitment to safety and people development

Experience:

Proven experience operating at Business Unit Director, Account Director or equivalent senior leadership level within the UK nuclear sector

Benefits:

Collaborative working environment – we stand shoulder to shoulder with our clients and our peers through good times and challenges
We empower all passionate technology loving professionals by allowing them to expand their skills and take part in inspiring projects
Expleo Academy - enables you to acquire and develop the right skills by delivering a suite of accredited training courses
Competitive company benefits
Always working as one team, our people are not afraid to think big and challenge the status quo

As a Disability Confident Committed Employer we have committed to:
- Ensure our recruitment process is inclusive and accessible
- Communicating and promoting vacancies
- Offering an interview to disabled people who meet the minimum criteria for the job
- Anticipating and providing reasonable adjustments as required
- Supporting any existing employee who acquires a disability or long term health condition, enabling them to stay in work at least one activity that will make a difference for disabled people

“We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from all suitably qualified persons regardless of their race, sex, disability, religion/belief, sexual orientation or age”.

We treat everyone fairly and equitably across the organisation, including providing any additional support and adjustments needed for everyone to thrive
