Are you a proven business development leader with the drive to shape and lead a growing division? We’re looking for a Head of Business Development to spearhead the recladding and remediation arm of the business – a highly specialised sector at the forefront of government-funded safety projects.

This is a rare opportunity to step into a newly prioritised leadership role.

• Manage and develop a small team (currently x2), coaching and setting clear expectations
• Take a consultative approach to uncover client needs, build trust, and position services strategically
• Develop and manage a pipeline of opportunities across London and the South East
• Build and nurture relationships with key stakeholders, including local authorities, housing associations, consultants, and contractors
• Work closely with pre-construction and internal teams to ensure seamless collaboration and project delivery
• Spend the majority of your time meeting stakeholders face-to-face, ensuring visibility and influence in the market

Requirements

Must Have

• Proven consultative sales approach with a track record of success in project-based environments
• Hands-on, proactive attitude with the ability to influence at all levels
• Strong people management skills – able to lead, coach, and inspire a team
• Background in construction, façades, or related industries

Nice to Have

• Experience building and embedding business development processes
• Existing social sector relationships (public sector / housing associations / local authorities)

Why Apply?

This is a pivotal role in a growing and ambitious business, giving you the opportunity to shape strategy, build a high-performing team, and leave your mark on a market with real purpose. You’ll enjoy autonomy, variety, and the support of a collaborative leadership team, all while helping to deliver safer, more sustainable buildings across the capital.
