COMMERCIAL LEAD, Operations
Andron Facilities Management is one of the UK’s most successful family-owned facilities management companies.
Our story began back in 1980 as a father-and-son duo with a single carpet-cleaning machine and a vision of doing things differently. Today, we are a third-generation company with more than 2,600 colleagues, delivering cleaning, security and support services across over 1,000 customer sites throughout the UK.
We are a growing, values-led business with a clear mission to make a difference. We care deeply about our people, give back to our communities and work hard to reduce our impact on the planet.
Due to continued growth, we have an exciting opportunity for a Head of Commercials to join our team.

Reporting to the COO, the Head of Commercials will work closely with operational and senior leaders to ensure strong commercial control, effective contract management and the identification and management of commercial risk and opportunity.
