Managing Director
About the role
Kelvin KBB, established in 1986, (http://www.kelvinkbb.com) is Scotland’s leading manufacturer of high quality Kitchens, Bathrooms and Bedrooms. Kelvin supply directly to the largest house builders and developers throughout the country. The Head Office and factory are based in Cumbernauld with an additional showroom recently opened near Stansted. Kelvin employs over 200 people with a turnover approaching £14m.
The company has recently benefitted from a change of ownership and significant injection of capital. There is a clear and ambitious strategy in place to substantially increase turnover through a combination of growing existing Scottish operations and actively growing market share across the UK. Recent major investment in operational systems, manufaturing plant and people accurately reflect the ambition of the new owner and the commercial opportunity that lies ahead. This will be a very exciting time to join the company.
We are looking to appoint an extremely high calibre Managing Director to drive this growth and assume overall executive control of the company. The Managing Director is likely to come from a Sales and Marketing background and if they have a strong understanding of the house building sector that would be advantageous.
The business is based in Scotland but its market opportunities are UK-wide, so we don’t mind where the new Managing Director lives, as long as they have the flexibility to lead the business and be where they need to be. While sector experience is preferred, we welcome applications from outstanding individuals with a strong track record in sales and leadership within related sectors such as manufacturing.
