  • Strong understanding of commercial processes, contracts, and project delivery
  • Proven ability (or clear potential) to lead, mentor, and develop others
  • A proactive, solutions-focused mindset with strong commercial awareness
  • Confident communicator, able to engage with stakeholders at all levels

The Opportunity

  • Join a financially stable, well-invested contractor with ambitious growth plans
  • Work on meaningful projects that impact communities and infrastructure
  • Be part of a business that genuinely rewards performance and initiative
  • Clear progression route into senior commercial leadership
