Managing Director | £50m Specialist Manufacturing & Services Business
I’m leading a confidential search for the next MD of a £50m UK specialist equipment manufacturer, with significant backing from experienced serial investors and an impressive ~70% share of its core market.
The business has built its position by doing what larger competitors struggle to do: highly bespoke, mission-critical solutions delivered at speed, often in days rather than weeks.
The next chapter is about scale:
- Transform service & aftermarket – currently capturing only ~10% of the opportunity across its installed base
- Scale operations and capacity to support continued growth
- Strengthen Europe and accelerate expansion into Canada & Australia
- Professionalise the business while protecting its entrepreneurial, family feel

Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
We’re looking for an entrepreneurial MD/GM/operational leader from an engineered product + service environment. Someone with exposure to global standards of operational excellence, but who thrives in a fast-moving, hands-on culture rather than a heavily corporate one.
