Fire Protection Commercial Operations Manager

Branch-based | Covering South Wales, the South West & South Coast of England

£60,000–£70,000 DOE + up to 25% bonus + car allowance + private healthcare

We are recruiting for an experienced Fire Protection Commercial Operations Manager to lead, manage and grow a fast-paced, fast-growing regional fire protection operation.

This is a high-profile senior leadership role with full responsibility for commercial performance, operational delivery, people leadership, client development and full P&L accountability across a growing fire protection business.

The role can be based from Bristol or South Wales, with responsibility for a branch-led operation covering Bristol, Somerset, Gloucester, South Wales and future growth across the South Coast of England.

You will take ownership of a busy regional fire protection operation, leading operational, commercial and administrative teams while driving growth across existing clients, new sectors and a wider geographical area.

This is not a pure operations role and it is not a pure business development role. It is a senior commercial operations position for someone who can run the business, lead the team, manage delivery, build client relationships and grow revenue profitably.

The role will involve:

  • Leading and managing a fast-growing regional fire protection operation
  • Taking full P&L responsibility across the branch and wider region
  • Driving commercial growth, revenue, margin and long-term contract value
  • Managing operational delivery across multiple fire protection contracts
  • Leading operational, commercial and administrative teams
  • Developing opportunities across existing clients and new target sectors
  • Growing the business across care homes, private property, education and wider property services customers
  • Expanding the geographical footprint across South Wales, the South West and the South Coast of England
  • Building strong relationships with clients, framework partners, stakeholders and senior leaders
  • Supporting bids, tenders, proposals, pricing and client presentations
  • Ensuring works are delivered safely, compliantly, profitably and to high quality standards
  • Managing operational risk, resources, performance and compliance

About you:

We are looking for a commercially focused fire protection leader who can manage a regional operation, lead people and drive profitable business growth.

You may already be operating as a Commercial Operations Manager, Fire Protection Manager, Passive Fire Manager, Regional Manager, Senior Contracts Manager, Contracts Manager, Operations Manager, Business Unit Manager or Commercial Manager within fire protection or a related specialist contracting environment.

Essential experience:

  • Strong background in fire protection, passive fire, fire stopping, fire doors, compliance works or specialist contracting
  • Experience managing a regional operation, branch, business unit, department or multiple contracts
  • Full P&L, budget or financial performance accountability
  • Strong commercial awareness with experience growing revenue, margin or contract value
  • Proven operational management experience across contracts, teams and delivery
  • Experience developing existing clients and identifying new business opportunities
  • Experience leading directly employed teams, subcontractors or operational delivery teams
  • Good understanding of health & safety, quality and compliance within construction or fire protection

Package:

  • £60,000–£70,000 salary DOE
  • Bonus opportunity up to 25%
  • Car allowance + EV salary sacrifice
  • Private healthcare
  • Company pension
  • Enhanced maternity, paternity and sick pay
  • 23 days annual leave, increasing with service
  • Option to buy and sell holidays
  • Life assurance

This is an excellent opportunity for a commercially driven fire protection leader to take ownership of a high-profile regional operation, manage full P&L performance and play a key role in the continued growth of a fast-paced national contractor.
