  • Relationships & Communication
    • Build and maintain strong relationships with key customer stakeholders, delivering world-class service
    • Hold regular customer meetings to review performance, pipeline, and opportunities
    • Provide customers with regular business and industry updates, plus technical guidance to help them achieve their goals
  • Project Delivery
    • Ensure every project is delivered OTIF (on time, in full) and to exact customer specifications
    • Own project schedules end-to-end, communicating changes promptly and managing expectations
    • Maintain accurate MIS records, raise POs, and issue clear work instructions to internal teams and suppliers
  • Commercial & Growth
    • Identify, agree, and document additional costs for invoicing, and invoice projects within agreed KPIs
    • Partner with Sales and Leadership to protect existing business and drive account growth
    • Champion continuous improvement by gathering and acting on feedback across the business

What we’re looking for:

  • Proven experience building senior stakeholder relationships and leading/coaching a team (e.g. using frameworks like GROW)
  • Confident negotiator and communicator, with sound judgement on delegation and escalation
  • Strong planning, prioritisation, and administrative skills, with excellent attention to detail
