Job description

Head of Commercial (Turnkey Fit-Out Experience)

about the company

Be at the forefront of Malaysian design and construction with a leading firm specializing in Turnkey Fit-Outs : corporate offices, financial services, retail & lifestyle. Renowned for innovative design solutions and seamless project execution, this is your opportunity to join a dynamic team driving creative workplace transformations.

about the job

  • Strategic P&L Ownership : Owns the commercial strategy and P&L (Profit & Loss) for the department, responsible for driving revenue growth and ensuring all projects meet strict profitability targets.
  • Full-Cycle Cost Control & Tendering : Leads all pre-contract activities including comprehensive Quantity Surveying (BQ / QTO), budget forecasting, and developing Value Engineering (VE) strategies to secure competitive bids.
  • High-Level Contract & Risk Management : Serves as the final authority on contract negotiation, drafting, and administration (D&B, Sub-Con), actively mitigating financial risks and claims exposure across the project portfolio.
  • MNC & Corporate Sales Support : Drives business development and manages relationships with key corporate clients and consultants, ensuring high service quality that meets strict MNC standards.
  • Senior Leadership & Governance : Directs and mentors the commercial and QS teams, implementing robust systems for financial reporting, project auditing, and final account agreement.

about the requirements

  • Education : A Bachelor's degree is the minimum, typically in Quantity Surveying (QS), Construction Management, Finance, or Business Administration. An MBA or Master's degree is often preferred.
  • Experience Level : At least 8 to 10+ years of progressive commercial experience, with a proven track record (3-5 years minimum) operating at a Senior Manager or Director level in a relevant industry (Construction, Corporate Fit-Out, or Property Development).
  • Technical Foundation : Deep knowledge of tendering, contract law, Bills of Quantities (BQ), and construction processes (especially fit-out specific areas like M&E / ID works).
  • Core Technical and Commercial Competencies

    The role is ultimately responsible for the financial success of the projects and the department, requiring mastery in :

  • Commercial Acumen : Expertise in developing and executing commercial strategies, pricing models, and feasibility studies to maximize profitability and capture market share.
  • Contract Management : Proficiency in negotiating, drafting, and managing major contracts (JCT, FIDIC, etc.) and handling complex post-contract issues like claims and variations (VOs).
  • Financial Oversight : Strong command of budgeting, forecasting, cash flow analysis, and financial reporting to senior management. This is distinct from general sales management.
  • Business Development (BD) : Proven success in identifying, securing, and nurturing relationships with high-value corporate and regional clients (MNC standards).
  • Leadership and Soft Skills (The Differentiators)

    Since this is a "Head of" role, leadership and strategic management skills are crucial :

  • Leadership and Team Management : Demonstrated ability to lead, mentor, and motivate a diverse team covering sales, pre-contract, and Quantity Surveying roles.
  • Stakeholder Negotiation : Exceptional skills in negotiating major contracts with clients, suppliers, and subcontractors, while protecting the company's profitability.
  • Strategic Planning : Ability to analyze market trends (e.g., shifts in corporate real estate or sustainable design) and pivot commercial strategies accordingly.
  • Communication : Fluency in English and often Mandarin or other regional languages is highly advantageous in the diverse Malaysian commercial landscape.
  • Professional Certification (Highly Valued) : Holding certifications like PMP or membership in a relevant professional body is a strong plus.
  • about the manager / team

    Your team / manager autonomy at work where quality is a key part of their success. This role will be reporting to the Managing Director.
