Head of Commercial

Location: Birmingham (Hybrid Working)
Salary: £100,000 + Profit Share + Excellent Benefits

A rare opportunity to shape the commercial direction of a growing rail infrastructure business.

Are you an established commercial leader looking for the autonomy to influence business strategy, develop people and play a key role in the continued growth of an ambitious rail infrastructure organisation?

This is an opportunity to step into a senior leadership position within an entrepreneurial, employee-focused business, where your experience and ideas will genuinely influence how the organisation develops.

The Opportunity

Taking ownership of the commercial function, the Head of Commercial will play a pivotal role in supporting the business's strategic objectives, providing commercial leadership and ensuring effective commercial governance across its rail infrastructure portfolio.

Working closely with senior leadership, you will have the opportunity to shape commercial processes, influence decision‑making and support the successful delivery of projects from initial development through to completion.

This is a position offering genuine autonomy, with the opportunity to make a lasting contribution rather than simply inheriting an established function.

The Role

• Lead and develop the commercial function, providing direction and support to commercial teams.
• Establish and implement commercial strategies aligned with the wider business objectives.
• Provide senior-level commercial advice and guidance across the project portfolio.
• Oversee commercial governance, financial performance, risk management and contractual compliance.
• Drive effective cost control, forecasting, change management and commercial reporting.
• Build and maintain relationships with key clients, contractors and rail industry stakeholders.
• Identify opportunities to improve commercial processes, performance and profitability.
• Work alongside senior leadership to support business development and continued organisational growth.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

• £100,000 salary with an additional company profit share scheme, distributing an equal proportion of 10% of annual net profits among eligible employees.
• Influence and autonomy: Take ownership of the commercial function and contribute directly to the strategic direction and continued growth of the business.
• Rail infrastructure: Work within a specialist organisation delivering schemes that make a tangible difference to the UK's rail network and the communities it serves.
• Employee-focused culture: Join an entrepreneurial business where people are encouraged to challenge existing approaches, contribute ideas and take ownership of their development.

The Benefits

The business places genuine emphasis on employee wellbeing, development and creating an environment where people can thrive.

Alongside a competitive salary and company profit share scheme, the package includes:

• Private healthcare and comprehensive wellbeing support.
• Enhanced pension and financial protection benefits.
• Generous annual leave with additional leave purchase options.
• Flexible hybrid working arrangements.
• Support for professional development and qualifications.
• A range of lifestyle benefits, discounts and social activities.
