This is a high-impact role for a commercially astute and people-focused Operations Director ready to shape the future of service delivery in one of the UK's most vital sectors.

About the Role

You'll take full ownership of a portfolio of healthcare contracts, ensuring every site delivers exceptional patient and client experiences while achieving commercial and operational success.

Your focus will be on retention, performance, and growth —building trusted client partnerships, developing high-performing teams, and ensuring sustainable, compliant, and profitable operations across your region.

This role demands a balance of strategic oversight and operational visibility—you'll lead remotely but stay closely connected to frontline teams and clients, ensuring the highest standards of care, safety, and service.

  • Drive margin improvement, cost efficiency, and sustainable growth.
  • Use data, insight, and performance metrics to shape strategy and decision-making.

Operational Excellence

  • Champion safety, compliance, and patient experience as non-negotiables.
  • Embed innovation and technology to enhance service delivery and reporting.
  • Ensure full regulatory and contractual compliance at all times.

What You'll Bring

  • Proven success managing multi-site, multi-stakeholder operations—ideally within healthcare, facilities, or complex service environments.
  • A demonstrable track record in contract retention, performance improvement, and client satisfaction.
  • Strong commercial acumen with the ability to interpret data and deliver results.
  • Inspirational leadership style—strategic, people-first, and performance-driven.
  • Exceptional communication, negotiation, and relationship-building skills.

Why Join Us?

  • £100k+ package with performance-linked benefits.
  • A values-led organisation committed to quality, inclusion, and innovation in healthcare.
  • Hybrid working with autonomy and trust.
  • The opportunity to shape service delivery that directly impacts lives.
