About the role

You’ll already be operating at Associate Director or Director level, with a proven track record in business development and a strong network you can leverage.

Responsibilities
- Lead business development activity, using your network to identify and secure opportunities.
- Deliver project management commissions from early engagement through to completion.
- Act as a trusted advisor across multiple sectors and project stages.
- Work closely with Chris to convert pipeline into secured work.
- Support the development of a high‑performing regional team, including future hires.
- Help shape CPC’s North West growth strategy and identify new markets.
- It is expected you will be confident operating in complex environments and comfortable with NEC and JCT contracts (desirable, not essential), acting as a trusted client advisor while leading delivery from the front.
- Influence early‑stage discussions, helping define scope, strategy, and programme set‑up from the outset.
Benefits
- Competitive salary plus performance‑related bonus.
- Private healthcare (including dental and optical cover) for you and your family.
- Travel insurance (inc. winter sports) for you and your family.
- Hybrid and flexible working.
