01

Full-time CEO — the balanced verdict

Why this role stands out

  • Clear executive leadership mandate with full P&L ownership and group CEO reporting line
  • Established, growing business with blue-chip customer base and differentiated technology
  • Emphasis on hands-on, operationally engaged leadership rather than boardroom-only approach
  • Multi-functional leadership scope (sales, ops, engineering, PMO, service) suits experienced business unit leaders

Worth checking before you apply

  • On-site, full-time commitment with UK, Ireland and European travel expected
  • Rare opportunity language and growth ambitions suggest demanding, high-stakes role
  • Sector specificity (water treatment, environmental services, industrial engineering) may narrow candidate pool

Managing Director - UK & Europe

Alfreton, Derbyshire | UK, Ireland & European travel

Lead. Scale. Deliver.

Envirogen is a leading provider of industrial water and wastewater treatment solutions, helping blue-chip customers improve operational performance, sustainability and resource efficiency.

As we enter the next phase of growth across the UK and Europe, we are seeking an outstanding Managing Director to take full ownership of the regional business.

Reporting directly to the Group CEO, you will lead all commercial, operational, engineering, project management and service functions, with full P&L accountability and responsibility for delivering ambitious growth plans.

This is not a boardroom-only role. We're looking for a hands-on business leader who enjoys being close to customers, projects and people; someone who can drive strategy while also rolling up their sleeves to remove barriers, improve performance and accelerate growth.

Key Responsibilities

  • Full ownership of the UK & Europe P&L, growth strategy and business performance.
  • Lead and develop teams across Sales, Service, Operations, Engineering and PMO.
  • Drive profitable growth through project sales, recurring service revenues and customer retention.
  • Build a disciplined, high-performance culture with strong accountability and execution.
  • Ensure projects are delivered safely, on time and profitably.
  • Strengthen collaboration between commercial and operational teams.
  • Champion a zero-harm safety culture across the business.
  • Why Envirogen?

This is a rare opportunity to lead an established, growing business with an excellent reputation, differentiated technology, blue-chip customers and significant untapped potential.

If you're a leader who enjoys building teams, driving performance and delivering growth from the front, we'd love to hear from you.
