Operations Manager


Change management / Leadership / efficiency and growth


Our client is a well-established SME, a leader in their field, delivering a specialist engineering, repair and overhaul-based service to their clients, across the UK.


They’re enjoying a prolonged period of growth and in line with this, they seek to appoint a new Operations Manager whose role it will be to facilitate their expansion and capitalise upon the opportunity for greater efficiency, that growth is bringing.


The services that they deliver are of high value, supplied to customers in the field, meaning that a high degree of communication is required between all stakeholders as well as sharp organisation and strong leadership.


Ideally you will have experience of being instrumental in the operational growth of a field based, engineering based service provider. You will be motivated by change and embedding it. You will challenge the status que, bringing your team on the journey and driving cultural improvement. The role will be broad, reviewing and improving processes, better utilising/changing systems & technology and building strong leadership structures within Operations.

In view of the operation being field based, you will be willing to travel, able to attend field-based visits within the UK, although this shouldn’t be too onerous.


For the right person, this could be career defining, both in the short to medium terms, via the of adding real value to a business at an exciting period of growth and, in time, with the potential of succession planning for the position of Managing Director.


If you feel you have the right experience for this role, please apply now, with your CV, for immediate review.
