Hands-on commercial role with project ownership

Please note – this role is fully on-site in Bristol during probation.

We’re supporting a purpose-driven business delivering high-quality, energy-efficient retrofits across the UK. With sustainability at its core and backed by strong growth, they’ve created a new opportunity for a Commercial Project Lead to join their Bristol office.

It’s a great chance to join a tight-knit, values-led team that believes in ownership, efficiency, and doing the job right.

What will you do?

This is a hands-on commercial delivery role, responsible for owning project profitability from day one. You’ll lead all things margin-related across multiple retrofit projects, working closely with the Head of Commercial and Project Buyers.

• Build project budgets and manage cash flow from start to finish
• Track gross margin, valuations, variations, and spend
• Submit accurate monthly reports and forecasts to clients and directors
• Ensure project payments and variations are actioned properly
• Liaise with suppliers to reduce costs and avoid margin slippage
• Find ways to improve project performance and drive profitability

You'll have autonomy and backing - the team wants someone with ideas who can take ownership, be proactive, and make projects run better.

What skills will you need?

• 2–3 years minimum experience in a commercial role, ideally with some experience managing a small team or leading from the front
• Sector experience (retrofit, housing, construction) is nice to have - but not essential. Our client has hired successfully from outside the industry where candidates bring strong transferable commercial skills and leadership qualities
• Solid understanding of margins, valuations, forecasting, and project cash flow
• Clear communicator, confident engaging with clients, suppliers, and internal teams
• Highly organised with strong attention to detail
• Commercially minded and proactive — someone who spots problems early and solves them

What do you get in return?

• £45,000 – £55,000 salary depending on experience plus monthly bonus
• Flexible benefits incl. tech scheme, medical cash plan, cycle to work
• Option to buy more holiday
• Work with meaning - make homes greener and more energy-efficient
