Are you ready to put your stamp on something big?
We're working exclusively with a major UK industrial enterprise at a pivotal point in their growth. They're launching a brand-new Inspection Division, an area set to become a cornerstone of their UK operations, and they're looking for an experienced Inspection Manager to lead from the front.
This isn't just a job, it's a career-defining opportunity. You'll have the autonomy to shape, scale, and elevate a division backed by serious investment, board-level support, and a forward-thinking leadership team. If you're a qualified inspection professional with a passion for people leadership, technical excellence, and delivering impact-this could be the platform you've been waiting for.
What You'll Be Doing
* Leading and managing the newly formed Inspection Division
* Ensuring high-quality inspections and technical reporting across multiple UK sites
* Preparing and delivering commercial proposals to external clients
* Managing invoicing and service delivery for third-party work
* Working closely with senior stakeholders to build long-term client relationships
* Driving innovation, standards, and continuous improvement
What We're Looking For
Essential:
* A recognised inspection qualification such as EEMUA 159, API 570, API 510, or equivalent
* Experience in an asset integrity, inspection, or maintenance engineering environment
* Previous leadership or management experience
* Strong stakeholder and client engagement capability
* Willingness to travel across UK sites with occasional overnight stays

Why This Role?
This is your chance to build something from the ground up, make strategic decisions, and be known as the individual who established a highly respected and commercially successful inspection division within a nationally recognised organisation. The potential for growth-both for the division and your career-is immense.
You'll join a team that values technical integrity, innovation, and people development, and you'll be empowered to make decisions that matter. This isn't a back-office role-it's frontline leadership with high visibility and tangible results.
