This role is pivotal in supporting Heathrow being an Airport Fit For The Future.

The position oversees a portfolio covering logistics, cargo, industrial property, office space and wider non‑aeronautical commercial development.

Property Development & Project Delivery

• Create a sustainable pipeline of development opportunities utilising the airport’s vast estate and asset base.
• Oversee end‑to‑end delivery of large scale commercial property projects including but not limited to concept design, planning, financial modelling, procurement, construction, and handover.
• Build business cases and financial models for commercial property investments, ensuring strong ROI and alignment with commercial strategy.
• Oversee the capital governance and regulatory requirements to unlock funding, and oversee lease structuring, negotiations, and asset optimisation to maximise revenue across the property portfolio.

Leadership & Stakeholder Engagement

• Lead and develop a multidisciplinary property development team that is primed to respond to increased commercial development opportunities that arise from Heathrow’s Long Term Growth Strategies (Expansion).
• Work collaboratively with operations, engineering, security, planning, legal, and finance teams to ensure effective and timely delivery.

• Significant experience in commercial property development, ideally in complex or regulated environments (airport, rail, logistics, mixed‑use, or large infrastructure estates).
• Strong knowledge of UK planning processes, property law, and commercial leasing structures.
• Proven track record delivering large‑scale commercial or infrastructure developments in dense urban environments.
• Financial and commercial acumen, with experience building business cases and managing hundred million‑pound budgets.
• Ability to lead multi‑disciplinary teams and manage senior stakeholders.
• Excellent negotiation, communication, and contract management skills.
• Experience delivering projects within operational, safety‑critical environments.
