You will be an experienced senior analytical, laboratory or technical operations leader with a strong understanding of environmental testing, accredited laboratory environments and commercial service delivery. You will bring the confidence to lead change, develop people, influence stakeholders and translate technical capability into sustainable business growth.

  • Proven senior management experience, ideally with P&L responsibility within analytical testing, laboratory services or a related technical environment.
  • Strong commercial awareness with evidence of growing services, developing new business opportunities and delivering profitable growth.
  • Technical credibility in analytical services, including method development, validation, accredited systems or regulatory standards.
