You’ll help shape high-performing systems and processes, ensuring everyone achieves their objectives and key results while driving innovation and collaboration.
Working closely with managers, you’ll provide resourcing oversight, drive forward strategic projects with operational excellence, and ensure consistency across teams, fostering a culture that celebrates opportunity-spotting and continuous improvement.

As an experienced operational manager, your project management skills include scoping, design, delivery and evaluation, with the ability to analyse data to drive continuous improvement. You’ll be comfortable using relationship and financial management systems and have a proven track record of building and maintaining relationships with stakeholders at all levels.
You thrive when managing multiple projects, setting priorities and using your judgement to achieve results.
If you have initiative, resilience and a growth mindset - someone committed to targets, who acts proactively and embraces innovation – we encourage you to apply.
