Salary
Torquay Operations Manager
Stagecoach South West
Does the thought of leading our Torbay operation of over 142 colleagues and 52 vehicles sound right up your street? How about working in the heart of the South West community to deliver an amazing service to our hugely valued customers every day? Then read on, because this could well be the opportunity you’ve been waiting for!
You could be an existing Operations Manager looking for a new opportunity, or an Assistant Operations Manager looking for your first outing as an Operations Manager.
You’ll be passionate about people – leading your colleagues to deliver a safe, efficient and effective transport service to the incredible Torbay community. Your success in this role will also be a major contributor to our wider South West business.
Speaking of the business, let’s tell you about Stagecoach South West…
* Last year, 11.2 million miles were operated within the South West across Devon, Torbay, and Plymouth and into Cornwall, Somerset, and Bristol.
* We carried 17 million passengers on our services.
* We have over 300 vehicles operating on over 80 routes.
* Our business is made up of over 1000 staff at 4 depots and 10 outstations.
* In a recent independent Bus Passenger Survey, we scored a rate of 87% overall satisfaction from our customers.
So, what will I have the opportunity to do?
Working within a dedicated team, the main aim is to ensure our services leave the depot on time, with our customer-focused drivers ready and able to meet our customers’ expectations.
To do this, you’ll lead, motivate, develop, and engage your colleagues, and develop a close and constructive partnership with engineering and commercial departments.
The responsibility to respond quickly to any problems will be yours, so you’ll have the opportunity to make a direct and hugely positive impact on our customers and our business.
Ultimately, the performance of the Torbay depot will be in your hands – service, security, safety, and standards…so this is an incredible career opportunity.
And it won’t all be internally facing – there’ll be the opportunity to be involved with building relationships with key local partners.
If you’re interested in this role, we do need some specific experience:
You’ll need to have good leadership capabilities, in particular within a changing environment.
Your communication skills will be strong in order to build excellent relationships with both internal and external stakeholders.
And that’s about it!

Stagecoach workplace culture is one where everyone can be themselves and where all the differences our people bring to the business are celebrated.
