Our client is an established leader in their field, delivering specialist engineering, repair, and overhaul based services to their clients across the UK.
Due to a change in market conditions, they are enjoying a significant period of growth, particularly within their field-based operation. In support of this, they seek to appoint a Head of Operations whose role will be to shape and develop the existing operation and to expand it. You will have a proven background in leading a field-based operation, supporting its growth, rising to challenges, implementing solutions, and having successfully implemented a management structure within the team as it grew. You will have a clear vision for best practice.
Our client delivers high-value engineering based services on customers' own sites, meaning a high degree of communication is required between all stakeholders, as well as strong organisational and leadership skills in the role and across Operations. The business is an SME, and you should be used to undertaking a broad range of responsibilities (commercial and management based), able to multitask, and to operate with a high degree of autonomy.
You will be focused on building a motivated and cohesive operation, able to make effective change and secure the buy-in of the workforce. You will challenge the status quo, bringing your team on the journey and driving cultural improvement. The role will be wide-ranging, reviewing and improving processes, better systems, embracing new technology, and building strong leadership structures within your team.
For the right person, this could be career-defining, both in the short to medium terms, by adding real value to a business during an exciting period of growth, and in time, with the potential for succession planning for the position of Managing Director.
