We're partnering with a
highly respected, family-led facilities management organisation
recognised for its professional, innovative, and service-focused approach. As

  • Produce high-quality, client-focused proposals that highlight innovation, value, and service excellence.
  • Prepare detailed cost models and commercial analyses in collaboration with the senior leadership team.
  • Manage client relationships through to successful contract mobilisation, ensuring seamless operational handovers.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Operations, Finance, and HR to ensure bids are deliverable and profitable.
  • Represent the business at industry events, client meetings, and networking forums to elevate brand awareness.
  • Provide regular pipeline, performance, and forecasting reports to the Commercial Director.

What You'll Bring

  • Proven success in
    Business Development, Commercial Management, or Sales Leadership
    within
    Facilities Management, Building Services, or related sectors
    .
  • Strong leadership skills and experience managing bids and business development teams.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication — with the ability to craft compelling, well-structured proposals.
  • Commercially astute, with confidence in financial modelling and margin management.
  • Solid understanding of FM operations, service delivery, and mobilisation processes.
  • Resilient, driven, and results-oriented with a collaborative, professional approach.
  • A confident networker who builds long-term client partnerships.

    £75,000 per annum
  • Car Allowance:
    £8,400 per annum (£700 per month)
  • Matched Pension Contributions:

  • Hybrid working and flexible environment
    that values trust and accountability.
