Lead Director - Public sector

General Description

Overview

Ensure all your application information is up to date and in order before applying for this opportunity.

Director – Building Surveying (Public Sector)

Build a Public Sector Division. Own It. Lead It.

Location: UK (national platform, North base)

Package: Six-figure base + 20% bonus

The Opportunity

I’ve been referred by a long-standing industry contact to represent a well-established national building consultancy that’s ready to seriously enter the public sector market – but they want the right person to lead it. You’ll be joining a business with:

• 6 offices across the UK
• A strong, profitable private-sector platform
• 20+ Building Surveyors already in the business
• Full back-office, brand, and operational support

What’s missing is public sector leadership – and that’s the gap you’ll fill.

The Role

This is a chance to build your own public sector business within an established firm.

You will:

• Take full ownership of public sector strategy and delivery
• Bring your existing public sector clients, frameworks, or relationships
• Design and implement your own processes, systems, and ways of working
• Be the face of the business in the public sector
• Build and scale a team around you as workload grows

No micromanagement. No legacy systems you’re forced to follow. xwzovoh You’ll be trusted to run this like it’s your own business, with the backing of a national consultancy.

Who This Suits

• Chartered Building Surveyor (MRICS or equivalent)
• Currently at Director / Associate Director level
• Strong background in public sector work (PFI, education, healthcare, local authority, NHS, frameworks)
• Proven ability to win work and carry client relationships
• Entrepreneurial, commercially minded, and comfortable with responsibility

If you’ve ever thought “I could build this better myself” – this role is probably for you.

Package

• Six-figure base salary
• 20% bonus on salary
• Clear long-term opportunity to grow something meaningful inside a supportive platform
• Equity pathways
