Main Duties:
- Develop, implement, and monitor day-to-day operational systems and processes to provide visibility and drive ownership of responsibilities
- Develop relationships with suppliers, contractors and existing/potential customers in order to maximise opportunities for growth and business development
- Design, plan and monitor key metrics within the operations to allow for rapid, controlled growth
- Ensure all contractual obligations are fulfilled and the operational workflow managed appropriately
- Take responsibility for the recruitment of essential hires across the Company, allowing for a diverse range of ideas and skillsets
- Work closely with the Financial Controller to ensure profitability by controlling the budget, and P&L, and maintaining transparency with the Praxis Group COO
- Full commercial and operational responsibility for the performance of all the contracts
- Report regularly to the Praxis Group Board on the performance of all aspects of the business
- Provision of best-in-class service to all internal and external stakeholders, leading the standards in design, execution and Health & Safety
- Monitor all Company policies and procedures, and ownership of subsequent required actions for non-adherence
Requirements, skills and qualifications:
- Extensive experience in leading a design and fit-out company (or a division within a larger company)
- Highly entrepreneurial and commercial in approach
- Demonstrable experience of building strong and enduring client relationships
- Deep understanding of JCT contract administration
- Strong initiative and an ability to navigate ambiguity
- Ability to instigate and oversee the design and implement best-in-class systems and processes
- Strong leadership and people management capability
- Tech-savvy and innovative
- Positive attitude, resilience and reliability
- Able to work autonomously, whilst building effective relationships with key stakeholders and departments
