• Drive strategic expansion into target sectors and emerging markets.
• Engage and negotiate at senior executive level.
• Identify, qualify and progress high-value multi-service opportunities.
• Work in partnership with the bid team on PQQs, RFIs and complex tenders.
• Ensure disciplined pipeline management and CRM accuracy.
• Deliver structured weekly reporting and revenue forecasting.
• Represent the organisation professionally within industry networks and key forums.

The Profile We Are Seeking
• Extensive experience within the regulated security services sector.
• Proven track record of delivering multi-million-pound annual revenue growth.
• Strong commercial acumen with a disciplined, target-driven approach.
• Executive presence and credibility when engaging senior stakeholders.
• Demonstrated ability to open new markets and build sustainable sector presence.
• Structured, professional communicator with high personal standards.

Why This Role?
• Senior-level influence within a nationally recognised provider.
• Significant earning potential through base + commission.
• Clear revenue mandate with autonomy to shape regional strategy.
• Backed by operational strength and established delivery capability.
• Opportunity to contribute directly to sustained national growth.

This appointment will suit a commercially astute, strategically minded security sector leader who thrives on building high-value relationships and converting complex opportunities into long-term partnerships.
