📌 Position Overview
We are seeking an exceptionally experienced Senior Executive to establish and scale a world-class joinery manufacturing division from the ground up. You will own end-to-end facility development, from site preparation through operational excellence, with full P&L accountability and direct access to C-suite leadership.
📌 Full Scope of Responsibility
You will be responsible for everything from land onwards, including:

* Demonstrated P&L ownership and financial accountability
* Expertise in facility planning, infrastructure development, equipment procurement, and team scaling
* International supplier networks and knowledge of global best practices
