Location: Kent / London (Hybrid Site & Office Based)
Salary: £70,000 + Company Ford Ranger
A growing construction contractor delivering refurbishment and planned works programmes across MOD and housing stock is seeking a Senior Operations Manager to take full operational control of the business.
This is not a desk-based operations role. This is a senior leadership position with real influence and accountability.
The successful candidate will oversee Site Managers and Project Managers, drive commercial performance, and ensure delivery standards across multiple live sites.
With significant government-backed programmes underway, the business is entering its next growth phase and requires a commercially astute operator who can effectively run day-to-day operations at senior level.
The Role
Lead and manage Site Managers and Project Managers across multiple programmes
Ensure works are delivered on time, within budget and to required quality standards
Oversee commercial performance, including reviewing NFF codes, pricing structures and cost control
Work closely with key clients and stakeholders, maintaining strong working relationships
Monitor and drive KPIs across productivity, programme delivery and compliance
Identify operational improvements and efficiencies
Support strategic growth plans alongside the Director
This role will operate as the senior operational lead within the business and will have significant autonomy.
The Candidate
Strong background within construction operations (planned works, refurbishment, social housing or MOD experience desirable)
Commercially aware and comfortable reviewing pricing structures and cost codes
Experience managing Site Managers and Project Managers
Confident liaising directly with clients
Strong leadership presence with the ability to drive accountability
Comfortable working in a growing, fast-paced contractor environment
This would suit someone currently operating at Operations Manager level who is ready to step into a broader leadership position, or a Contracts Manager seeking greater responsibility.
Package
Company Ford Ranger
Genuine progression opportunity as the business continues to scale
This is an opportunity to step into a key leadership role within a contractor experiencing strong growth and long-term secured programmes.
