Job Description

Are you a highly ambitious, strategic leader within the defence sector, looking for a unique opportunity to shape and grow a new business area from the ground up?


We are partnered with a well-established and leading provider of full life-cycle engineering services, who are experts in transforming infrastructures across various markets, driving new technology and innovation to meet modern day challenges and adapt at scale.


A very exciting and unique opportunity has become available for an experienced Delivery Director to spearhead the development of their advisory and analytics capabilities within the Defence sector, building a future-focused portfolio.


This is a crucial and high-impact role. This isn't just about managing projects; it's about driving business development with expert delivery to help shape and grow a new business area from the ground up.


Already having a large footprint in the defence sector, primarily focused on equipment and maintenance, this role offers the chance to leverage their existing presence, whilst building a new, high-growth advisory business that addresses critical gaps in the market, such as the use of data science and AI to solve logistical challenges, with this being a key area of investment and growth.

  • Asset Management and Digital Advisory: Experience in asset management, digital advisory, data science, and operational technology (OT)
  • Proven Business Acumen: A track record of both business development and project delivery. You must be able to generate new opportunities, develop solutions, and close deals.
  • Entrepreneurial Mindset: We're looking for an individual who is proactive, creative, and willing to take ownership of the business growth. You should be able to identify and pursue opportunities, whether they are small tactical projects or larger strategic frameworks.
  • Relationship-Driven: You will be engaging with senior stakeholders and partners. Building strong, collaborative relationships is key to success.
  • Location: While they operate across the UK, you should be willing and able to travel to main offices in London, Manchester, and Birmingham, with a requirement to be in London at least a couple of times a month.
