General Manager – Profit Centre Lead / Head of Sales, £70,000 basic + Significant Guarantee | £130,000+ package | Profit Share, Executive Company Car | Bupa | 6% Pension, Milton Keynes. As General Manager, you'll take full responsibility for turnover, margin, operating costs and long-term growth strategy. This is full P&L ownership of a £9m+ standalone profit centre within a £1bn+ group.
Operating within a decentralised, entrepreneurial structure, you will have genuine authority to:
* Set and deliver growth strategy
* Own and drive the P&L
* Accelerate B2B sales performance
* Strengthen global supplier relationships
* Build and develop a high-performing team
* Optimise operations and governance
This is leadership with teeth — autonomy, commercial freedom, and a direct link between performance and reward.
What Success Looks Like
* Year-on-year growth in turnover and margin
* Delivery against forecast commitments
* Strong supplier partnerships
* Increased B2B market share
* Operational excellence (OTIF, stock, service)
* A driven, accountable leadership team
About You
You're commercially sharp and ownership-led.
You likely bring:
* Proven experience owning and growing a P&L
* Strong B2B commercial leadership background
* Strategic thinking with operational grip
* Supplier negotiation experience at a senior level
* Track record of driving margin and revenue growth
* Experience leading and developing teams
The Package
* £70,000 basic salary
* Significant Guarantee (Year one)
* £130,000+ Package
* Profit Share linked to performance
* Executive company car
* Bupa private healthcare
* 6% pension contribution
* High autonomy within a £1bn+ group structure
Why This Role Stands Out
This is ideal for a commercially ambitious leader who wants real ownership—not corporate restrictions. You'll operate with entrepreneurial freedom, backed by group support and infrastructure. High autonomy. High accountability. High reward.
