With over 15 years of sustained growth, this group has built a reputation for innovation, autonomy, and long-term thinking.
Each international subsidiary operates with genuine independence, and this role represents full P&L ownership of the UK / Group HQ operation, with the backing of engaged owners and an experienced incumbent MD for full handover.

Drive sales, marketing, and commercial strategy
Own operational performance and financial outcomes
Develop people, culture, and leadership capability
Represent the business at board and shareholder level
Who We're Looking For:
We're looking for someone special.
A commercially sharp, people-centric leader with the ambition, gravitas, and capability to run a business in its entirety.
You will most likely come from the MRO Supply Chain, Engineering Supplies, Industrial Equipment or allied product supply industries and already operate at Senior Leadership level, with a clear upward career trajectory toward MD.
Your Background Will Include:
Senior leadership experience within the market sector you are in.
Strong understanding of complex distribution routes to market and fragmented supply chains.
A proven record of Sales growth and Commercial performance.
Experience managing a business or business unit with real accountability.
Exposure to international trading environments (desirable).
Strong analytical and IT capability, able to turn data into actionable strategy.
A passion for technology and technical products.
The gravitas and confidence to influence at board and owner level.
You'll be ambitious, resilient, and comfortable with challenge — but equally collaborative, values-led, and committed to developing people.
Package:
Highly competitive salary (circa £100k+, negotiable) + Excellent benefits
Fast track to MD appointment rising remuneration (£150k)
Performance-related bonus
Company car
Pension
Clear progression to full Managing Director

Managing Director
Industrial - Engineering - MRO
Privately Owned | UK HQ
This is not just a job.
It's a succession opportunity.
Location:
Central England (Coventry, Leicester, Birmingham, Northampton or surrounding areas)
We are seeking a high-potential Senior Executive / Senior Leader who is ready to step into a Managing Director remit within a privately owned, international technology-led manufacturing group operating across the MRO, Industrial, Engineering and allied supply sectors.
With over 15 years of sustained growth, this group has built a reputation for innovation, autonomy, and long-term thinking.
Each international subsidiary operates with genuine independence, and this role represents full P&L ownership of the UK / Group HQ operation, with the backing of engaged owners and an experienced incumbent MD for full handover.
The Opportunity:
This is a Managing Director Designate role, offering a structured, supportive and fast track transition into full MD responsibility.
You will initially work alongside the current Managing Director in a mentoring-led handover, gaining deep insight into the business, its people, customers, and growth strategy — before assuming full MD status.
The remit is broad, autonomous, and commercially driven:
Lead and grow the UK / HQ business
Drive sales, marketing, and commercial strategy
Own operational performance and financial outcomes
Develop people, culture, and leadership capability
Represent the business at board and shareholder level
Who We're Looking For:
We're looking for someone special.
A commercially sharp, people-centric leader with the ambition, gravitas, and capability to run a business in its entirety.
You will most likely come from the MRO Supply Chain, Engineering Supplies, Industrial Equipment or allied product supply industries and already operate at Senior Leadership level, with a clear upward career trajectory toward MD.
Your Background Will Include:
Senior leadership experience within the market sector you are in.
Strong understanding of complex distribution routes to market and fragmented supply chains.
A proven record of Sales growth and Commercial performance.
Experience managing a business or business unit with real accountability.
Exposure to international trading environments (desirable).
Strong analytical and IT capability, able to turn data into actionable strategy.
A passion for technology and technical products.
The gravitas and confidence to influence at board and owner level.
You'll be ambitious, resilient, and comfortable with challenge — but equally collaborative, values-led, and committed to developing people.
Package:
Highly competitive salary (circa £100k+, negotiable) + Excellent benefits
Fast track to MD appointment rising remuneration (£150k)
Performance-related bonus
Company car
Pension
Clear progression to full Managing Director
Structured mentoring and handover from incumbent MD
