Operations Director

We’re partnering with an innovative, purpose-led business to find an Operations Director who’s ready to lead in building and scaling something truly transformational.
This is a unique opportunity to own the operational engine of a high-growth business from the ground up, designing systems, leading rollout, and setting up for national (and global) expansion.
This isn’t a maintenance role. It’s about building, innovating, growing, and repeating.
Responsibilities:
* Launch operations in new UK and international markets
* Design scalable systems across logistics, recruitment, onboarding, payments, and more
* Lead day-to-day execution of a fast-paced rollout plan
* Recruit, lead, and develop a growing operations team
* Collaborate with product, mental health, and barbering leads to align operations with the company vision
* Build performance dashboards and track key metrics to enable data-driven decisions
* Support investor readiness by demonstrating operational traction and scalability
* Prepare the business for future international expansion
Ideal Candidate:
* Proven experience in a senior operations role at a startup or scaleup
* Experience launching and growing operational models from scratch
* Strong skills in building systems, solving problems, and optimizing processes
* Comfortable with ambiguity, rapid change, and innovation
* Experience scaling teams and operations during periods of rapid growth
* Excellent communication skills and stakeholder management
* Passionate about building purposeful and positively impactful businesses
In return, you’ll receive a leadership role with influence, an attractive salary and bonus, and a genuine equity opportunity, giving you ownership in a business with big ambitions.
If you’re an operations leader ready to build, lead, and scale a high-growth business with purpose, we’d love to hear from you.
