Deliver safe, efficient and profitable service delivery (multi-discipline engineering environment)
Develop customer relationships and support business growth
Lead a team of approximately 40 employees, managing through a leadership team
Own operational performance and contribute directly to financial results
Build a culture of collaboration, accountability and continuous improvement
Represent the business within the UK maritime market

Strong stakeholder management and communication skills
Ability to balance strategic leadership with a practical, delivery-focused approach
