Vacancy Title

HEAD OF COMMERCIAL & PROJECT DELIVERY

Location KENT

PLEASE NOTE: CANDIDATE MUST BE LOCATED IN THE SOUTHERN HOME COUNTIES OR WITHIN A SENSIBLE COMMUTING DISTANCE OF CENTRAL KENT. 2 TO 3 DAYS PER WEEK IN THE OFFICE IS THE PREFERRED BASELINE, WITH GREATER FLEXIBILITY ONLY FOR A TRULY EXCEPTIONAL INDIVIDUAL.

Job Description

Are you ready to take your operational and commercial leadership career to the next level by owning project delivery performance, commercial outcomes and margin protection for one of the UK s most respected names in high security entrance and access control solutions?

This is a senior, business critical leadership position within a market leading organisation known for protecting highly sensitive environments across government, critical infrastructure and commercial settings. Sitting at the intersection of sales, delivery, finance and operations, this role exists to ensure that revenue, margin and forecast outcomes are actively managed after order intake, not reviewed too late once performance has already been affected.

Working directly for the Managing Director, you will take ownership of post order commercial performance while leading and elevating the wider project delivery function through a commercially disciplined lens. You will be responsible for improving forecast integrity, tightening change control, driving stronger PM standards and creating clear ownership below MD level, reducing the need for routine escalation and ensuring the business is better positioned to protect EBITDA, margin and delivery performance.

This role demands someone who can combine strong construction and project delivery understanding with real commercial ownership, operational authority and leadership maturity. You will need to be equally comfortable challenging forecasts, protecting margin, driving accountability, leading people and ensuring the wider delivery function is operating with clarity, structure and commercial discipline.

Why This Role Stands Out:

• A senior leadership role with genuine ownership across commercial and project delivery performance
• Direct influence over revenue, margin, forecast integrity and operational decision making
• Lead and shape a multidisciplinary delivery function in a business-critical role
• Reduce commercial leakage, improve PM standards and create stronger accountability below MD level
• Operate within a highly respected brand known for premium engineering, reliability and high security project delivery

Key Responsibilities:

Commercial Ownership, Margin Protection & Forecast Integrity

• Own commercial performance after order intake, ensuring revenue and margin outcomes are actively managed rather than reactively reported
• Protect EBITDA and project margin through stronger governance, timely intervention and commercially disciplined decision making
• Take ownership of forecast credibility post order, challenging and validating PM assumptions as site conditions, sequencing and programme realities evolve
• Ensure site change, slippage, variation and commercial risk are identified early, managed properly and not simply absorbed by the business
• Drive consistent change control discipline across the project delivery function
• Own commercial escalation on project issues requiring stronger intervention, judgement and leadership
• Maintain oversight of applications for payment, variation orders, final accounts, contractual position and wider commercial risk, with the QS carrying out the day to day detail and this role retaining accountability for the outcome
• Maintain oversight of commercial reporting and system integrity, including SIMPRO workflows and wider operational data accuracy
• Oversee credit check and cashflow related disciplines, ensuring risks are identified and managed appropriately

Set clear expectations around project progress, commercial discipline, forecast ownership, escalation thresholds and delivery standards

Drive backlog conversion and revenue timing discipline through structured engagement with Project Managers and wider delivery stakeholders

Reduce the need for routine MD intervention by creating stronger leadership, ownership and decision making at the right level

Champion process, systems and workflow improvements that improve productivity, profitability and delivery control

Team Leadership & Functional Scope

Lead and manage a multidisciplinary team of 3 Project Managers, Rollouts / Programmes lead, Project Administrator, Quantity Surveyor, Engineering Manager, Installation Supervisor and Installation Technician team

Build a culture of ownership, accountability, clarity and continuous improvement across the function

Develop team structures, responsibilities and performance expectations aligned to business objectives

Support recruitment, onboarding, capability building and succession planning where required

Act as the key bridge between project delivery teams and senior leadership, ensuring the function is aligned to wider commercial and operational objectives

Operate as a senior peer to the Head of Sales and a key functional counterpart to finance, service, engineering and wider divisional leadership.

Installation Technical Resource Oversight

Provide strategic leadership for the allocation, planning and utilisation of technical installation resources

Lead through the Installation Supervisor and wider technical resource base to ensure projects are properly supported, appropriately deployed and aligned to delivery priorities and commercial expectations

Oversee the quality and effectiveness of installation planning to ensure project delivery remains commercially and operationally sound

Work closely with engineering and service functions to ensure delivery feasibility, coordination and cost control are maintained

Training, Capability & Upskilling

Own the framework for training and upskilling across project delivery and installation teams

Identify capability gaps and ensure appropriate development plans and training interventions are implemented

Drive higher standards of competence, consistency and commercial awareness across the team

Embed a culture of professional growth, ownership and continual improvement

Subcontractor Network Management & Vetting

Oversee the management, vetting and performance of the subcontractor network

Set standards for subcontractor selection, onboarding, approval and ongoing review

Ensure subcontractors operate in line with company expectations, legal requirements, project standards and commercial objectives

Maintain strong relationships with key subcontractor partners to support delivery consistency, quality and risk control

Site Activity, Health & Safety & Risk Management

Provide strategic oversight into site activity, ensuring delivery teams operate in line with legislation, company policy and required standards

Set frameworks for risk identification, assessment and mitigation across project environments

Ensure robust Health & Safety practices are embedded and maintained across the project delivery and installation function

Oversee the reporting, escalation and resolution of site-based risks, incidents and near misses

Liaise with internal H&S specialists and external bodies when required to maintain compliance and protect the business

Champion a proactive culture of safety, risk awareness and operational discipline

Collaboration, Communication & Cross Functional Leadership

Act as the primary point of integration between sales intent, delivery reality and financial outcome

Work closely with the Head of Sales to improve handover quality, pipeline realism, forecast integrity and delivery readiness across live opportunities and secured work. The role sits alongside the Head of Sales within the divisional structure and is expected to bring strong cross-functional leadership across those areas.

Strengthen collaboration between sales, project delivery, finance, engineering and service functions

Ensure smoother handovers from sales into delivery, with stronger alignment on forecast realism, risk and operational readiness

Support key account development through sound strategic input, clearer delivery alignment and stronger internal coordination

Improve the quality and pace of decision making across the business by creating stronger cross functional communication and ownership

Work with finance as a strategic counterpart, recognising that finance retains reporting and assurance responsibilities while this role owns operational and commercial decision making across the delivery function. The divisional finance structure remains outside this reporting line.

Financial, Systems & Risk Discipline

Ensure activity, documentation and data are entered correctly into company systems through team accountability and process ownership
