About the role

Have you built a business, opened new markets, or turned a promising idea into commercial growth? A publicly-owned group delivering essential local services is seeking a high-calibre Non-Executive Director to bring commercial insight, entrepreneurial thinking and genuine independent perspective to its Group Board.

We are particularly interested in people who have won customers, developed services or helped businesses grow — someone who sees opportunities others miss, challenges established assumptions, and understands what it takes to turn ideas into sustainable results. This is an opportunity to help shape the future of a publicly-owned group that combines commercial ambition with a clear public purpose. The Group Board is collectively responsible for the success of the group of companies, and is made up of directors common to all group companies.

As a Non-Executive Director, you will provide independent oversight, constructive challenge and strategic guidance, and act as a trusted sounding board for the Executive Leadership Team — sharing experience and offering practical advice as they assess opportunities, test ideas and develop the business, while helping ensure the group maintains the highest standards of governance, financial discipline and accountability.

Experience and qualifications required

• Board-level experience as a non-executive director
• Senior leadership experience, ideally within a local-authority trading company or comparable publicly-owned commercial environment
• Expertise in at least one relevant area:
  • A business development / commercial background, with a track record of building or growing a business, winning customers, developing services or opening new markets — entrepreneurial experience welcomed, whether as a founder or through leading growth within an established organisation
  • In-depth knowledge of financial management, audit and treasury, with the ability to assess financial and commercial performance
  • Significant asset-management experience
• A proven track record of strategic planning and decision-making
• Strong understanding of corporate governance, risk management and regulatory compliance
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, sound judgement in balancing risk, cost, quality and social value, and the confidence to challenge constructively while maintaining collaborative relationships
• A commitment to high standards of governance, integrity and accountability, and to diversity, equity and inclusion

Desirable experience

• Expertise in one of: customer experience and engagement; environmental services; grounds and facilities; environmental sustainability; or communications, marketing and brand management
• Knowledge of the West London area and the public-services environment
