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
