** THE OPPORTUNITY
** VELUX is one of the world’s most recognised and loved brands in roof windows and skylights — a business with a genuine mission: transforming the spaces people live and work in through light, air, and sustainable design. Backed by a foundation with a long-term ownership philosophy, this is a company that thinks in decades, not quarters, and genuinely means it.
The Great Britain & Ireland market is entering an exciting new chapter. The team is strong, the strategy is clear, and the commercial foundations are in place. What the market needs now is an inspirational leader who can drive execution with energy and consistency — rallying a talented team around a shared mission and building real momentum across the professional partner ecosystem.
This is a rare opportunity to lead with genuine autonomy, a compelling brand story, and a talented team behind you. For a leader who is motivated by purpose as much as performance, who wants to shape a market rather than simply manage one, and who thrives in an environment where entrepreneurial thinking is genuinely encouraged — this role is worth a conversation.
** What you will lead
** You will have full P&L accountability for the GBI market, leading management team of Field Sales, National Sales, Sales Development, Customer Service and Marketing.
The role is primarily field-based, with regular presence at the Glenrothes back office. You will own the full commercial agenda, while operating as the senior voice of VELUX externally: at industry conferences, with house builders, architects, policy makers, and in the media.
You will orchestrate and continuously refine execution across the business, ensuring strategy translates into effective, efficient deployment across both B2B and B2C channels — bringing the full organisation together to perform at its best. This includes close collaboration with the global sales excellence team, aligning local execution with best practice and ensuring insights from the GBI market feed back into the broader Group agenda.
You will bring commercial discipline to every part of the operation — pricing, margin, and performance tracking — ensuring execution is not just consistent, but measurably effective.
** What we offer
**** Driving execution through people
** You will be in the field alongside your sales managers, present with pro partners and customers, and visible across the organisation. You lead from the front — translating strategy into action, setting the standard through your own presence, and bringing the best out of a capable team.
** Building a performance culture
** You will invest time in developing your people, enhancing performance, and creating an environment where execution is celebrated and accountability is real.
** Driving category growth in a tough market
** You will deepen relationships with the professional partner ecosystem — installers, architects, house builders, and dealers — and scale initiatives already showing traction.
