As an Operations Manager, your responsibilities will include:
Own weekly delivery of installation and survey capacity across both sites
Manage and develop three Installation Managers, plus oversight of surveyors and warehouse teams
Lead the health & safety audit programme, including site visits and spot checks
Act as the primary owner of customer complaint handling, end to end
Deliver weekly and monthly KPI reporting on capacity, quality, and health & safety
Drive continuous improvement and cost control across field operations

A level-6 degree in administration, business, engineering, or a related field
