Overview
We are seeking an experienced hands-on Operations Manager to oversee our day-to-day operations and ensure the smooth running of our business processes.
We are a small local Gardening & Ground Maintenance business that has been operational for the last 10 years. Over the last 10 years, the business has been run and managed by the owner. Last year, we took on an Office Manager to handle day-to-day administration duties, which has worked well.

This position will be the first of its kind for this business, as the owner has previously carried out these responsibilities.
