We are looking for an experienced Commercial & Business Development Manager who can drive growth and market share with current clients, lead a team, open new doors and connections and expand into new markets.

Ideally, you will have a solid knowledge of external building maintenance, facades, roofs or specialist access maintenance and a commercial understanding of how to drive growth. You may have a background within the facilities management, commercial cleaning or property maintenance sectors.

Why Join Us?

• Be a key player – You will have real influence over growth strategy, client relationships, and commercial success.
• Make an impact – This isn’t a maintenance role; you’ll be driving change, growth, and improvement.
• Variety and autonomy – A broad role spanning leadership, strategy, client engagement, and delivery.
• Strong client base – Work with established clients across multiple sectors, with real opportunity to expand.
• Growth-focused culture – A business that values ideas, initiative, and continuous improvement.
• Development and progression – Ongoing investment in your development, including a structured training plan.

Your Role at a Glance

This is a senior, hands‑on role where you will lead the commercial function and drive growth across both existing clients and new business.

You Will

• Lead and develop a high‑performing commercial team.
• Build and strengthen long‑term client relationships at a strategic level.
• Grow existing accounts while identifying and converting new business opportunities.
• Take ownership of commercial performance across key accounts (revenue, margin, retention, pipeline).
• Lead client engagement activity to unlock further growth opportunities.
• Oversee pricing strategy and contract negotiations to support sustainable profitability.
• Work closely with operational teams to ensure a seamless, joined‑up client experience.
• Use data, insight, and market awareness to drive performance and continuous improvement.

This is a role for someone who enjoys both the strategic and the day‑to‑day, equally comfortable shaping direction and being directly involved in client relationships and delivery.

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for a commercially driven, relationship‑focused leader who can make a tangible impact from day one. You will bring:

• Proven experience in a commercial, account management, or business development leadership role.
• A strong track record of building and growing high‑value client relationships.
• Experience managing revenue, margin, and overall commercial performance.
• The ability to lead, coach, and develop a team to deliver high standards and results.
• Strong negotiation skills and confidence managing complex commercial discussions.
• A strategic mindset, with the ability to spot opportunities and drive market growth.
• Excellent communication and influencing skills, with credibility at all levels.
• A data‑driven approach, using insight to inform decisions and improve performance.
• High levels of organisation, resilience, and personal accountability.

Desirable (but not essential)

• Experience within construction, facilities management, or cleaning sectors.
• Just as important is your approach – you will be proactive, solutions‑focused, and genuinely motivated by building long‑term client partnerships and delivering measurable results.
