Operations Director | £110,000 - £120,000 | Buckinghamshire | Main Contractor | Permanent
These roles don’t come around every day. Ones that give you a clear mandate and full ownership, with a team and territory to shape. This is one of those roles.
We are looking for an Operations Director to lead a division currently specialising in void management for the MOD (they do cover other sectors but this is the core focus at present). It’s a senior level role, with real responsibility, covering the Home Counties, Southern England, and the south coast.
You will be the driving force behind operational delivery - setting the standard for efficiency, safety, and service excellence across the region. From strategic planning through to on-the-ground execution, your decisions will shape the division’s performance and reputation.
This isn’t about day-to-day firefighting; it’s about ownership. You will lead, inspire, and develop a team of managers, operational staff, and key stakeholders, embedding a culture of accountability and high performance.
What you’ll bring:
* Senior operational leadership experience, ideally within MOD, housing, or related facilities management sectors
* Proven ability to run large teams and multiple sites across a wide geography
* Strong commercial acumen, with a track record of driving efficiency and operational improvement
* Exceptional stakeholder management skills - internal teams, clients, and contractors
* A strategic mindset, combined with a willingness to get involved when needed
Why this role is different:
* You’ll have a clearly defined territory and autonomy to shape delivery in your region
* It’s high-profile work within a well-established organisation, working on critical MOD properties
* The role comes with senior-level exposure and a genuine opportunity to influence strategy and operational excellence
If you thrive on responsibility, enjoy leading operational teams, and are motivated by making a tangible difference in the MOD sector, this is a role to make your mark.
