Background & Experience • Experience running or helping run a small business or division, • Automotive aftermarket, manufacturing, engineering or similar SME background preferred, • Experience with safety-related or regulated products is a plus, not essential, • Direct seatbelt or automotive safety experience is not required, • Commercial or sales background is helpful, but not mandatory, • Must understand how financial reports inform day-to-day decisions Salary & Incentives • Base salary of £50,000, • Performance-related bonus linked to business results, • Opportunity for short and and longer term incentives for the right person, based on delivery and retention In Summary This role is for someone who wants to own a small business environment, make real decisions, improve how things work, and grow alongside the company.
