Please note that this is not an advert for one specific live vacancy. It is an invitation to register your interest so that we can understand more about your experience, career ambitions and the type of opportunity that could represent the right next step for you.

A personal and informed approach

Illuminex Consultancy was founded by Simon Harris following more than 20 years working on the sales and commercial side of the building materials industry.

Our approach is personal, straightforward and built around genuine industry understanding, honesty and long-term relationships.

There is no assumption that you are actively looking to move. Registering simply allows us to understand more about your experience, what matters to you professionally and the type of opportunity that could be worth considering when the timing is right.

Not every assignment we manage will be advertised publicly, so registering also allows us to consider you for relevant opportunities that may be handled discreetly.
