Sales Manager - M&E Building Services (Leadership + Business Development)

* West London

* Salary based on experience

This is not a “sit behind a desk” sales role.
This is about leading from the front, building relationships, and driving real revenue within a well-established M&E contractor.

We're working with a respected, building services contractor delivering mechanical, electrical, and public health projects across London and the South East. With a strong reputation across refurbishment, maintenance, and infrastructure upgrades, they operate as both a principal contractor and specialist M&E provider.

They are now looking for a high-calibre Sales Manager to take ownership of business development, lead a small team, and help shape the next phase of growth.

The Role

You'll be responsible for driving new business while overseeing and supporting the existing team.

This includes:

* Leading business development across M&E projects (refurbishment, fit-out, maintenance, upgrades)

* Building and maintaining relationships with main contractors, consultants, and key clients

* Leveraging your subcontractor network and market knowledge to win work

* Supporting and developing the internal team in the Perivale office

* Working closely with senior leadership to identify opportunities and growth strategy

What They're Looking For

* Proven Sales / Business Development leadership within M&E building services

* Strong understanding of both:

* Subcontractor market

* Principal contractor environment

* Established network across London / South East construction market

* Commercially sharp - understands how projects are won, priced, and delivered

* Able to lead a team, not just operate individually

They're ideally looking for someone in the mould of a senior, well-connected industry operator (not entry-level, not purely internal sales).

Why Join?

* Established contractor with 30+ years' reputation in the market

* Strong pipeline across refurb, maintenance, and infrastructure upgrades

* Genuine autonomy to shape and grow a division

* Direct access to leadership - not lost in a corporate structure

* Opportunity to build something long-term, not just “hit targets”

Package

* Six-figure salary + bonus (flexible for the right person)

* Long-term opportunity with real influence

The Bottom Line

If you're already operating at senior level in the M&E space and want a role where you can genuinely drive growth, lead a team, and make your mark, this is worth a conversation
