Key Responsibilities

• Lead commercial and operational performance across all North Wales projects
• Work alongside directors on business development and strategic growth
• Oversee contract negotiations, tenders, and project delivery
• Build and manage regional delivery teams and supply chains
• Ensure consistent quality, profitability, and client satisfaction

What You’ll Bring

• Strong commercial and/or operational experience in construction, groundworks, civil engineering, or sports surfacing
• Track record of delivering multi-site projects with full lifecycle oversight
• Confidence managing clients, budgets, and technical delivery
• A hands-on approach and entrepreneurial mindset – ready to lead and scale
• Ambition to progress to Director-level as the business expands

What’s on Offer

• £70,000 – £75,000 salary
• Full benefits package (car allowance, pension, holiday etc.)
• Flexible hybrid working – work how and where you deliver best
• True ownership of a growing regional division
• Direct access to the senior team and input into future company strategy
• Real career progression into senior leadership / Director status

This is a confidential opportunity with huge scope.
