STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL - Managing Director - Commercial Bias
Precision Engineering | Aerospace & Defence
Yorkshire | £100,000–£110,000 + £10k Car Allowance, 30% Bonus, Pension, Holiday
Our client is a highly respected, privately-owned precision engineering business with a proud manufacturing heritage spanning more than 60 years. Operating from a well-invested UK facility, alongside an established overseas manufacturing presence, the business supplies mission-critical components into some of the world's most demanding industrial sectors, including Aerospace, Defence, Power Generation, Oil & Gas and Heavy Off-Highway equipment.
With a loyal blue-chip customer base, exceptional engineering capability and an outstanding reputation for quality, the business is entering an exciting new phase of growth and is now seeking an entrepreneurial, commercially-driven Managing Director to lead it there.
The Opportunity
This is not a turnaround, and it is not simply an operational leadership role.
It is a rare opportunity to take the helm of an established, profitable engineering business and shape its future, growing the order book, developing new strategic accounts and expanding its footprint across Aerospace, Defence and other high-value markets.
A future Management Buy Out (MBO) opportunity is genuinely on the table for the right individual, offering a route to long-term ownership and value creation, not just a salary.
The Role
Reporting directly to the Board, you will take full responsibility for the commercial and operational performance of the business, with a clear mandate: grow the business.
