Operations manager (construction / specialist fit-out)

Woking
Fabritech Systems
Operations manager
Posted: 21h ago
Offer description

Overview

This is not a typical operations role.

We are looking for a highly capable, commercially minded individual to work directly with the business owners to help run and scale a specialist construction and manufacturing business.

Fabritech delivers high-end acoustic fabric systems to clients across music, media, and premium commercial fit-out sectors.

Alongside this, you will gain exposure to — and contribute towards — the growth of Studio Creations and inSono Acoustics, working on high-end studio and technical projects globally.

This role is designed for someone who wants to learn how to run a business properly, not just sit within one.


The Opportunity

You will work directly with the owners across:

* Live projects
* Client management
* Commercial decision-making
* Operational delivery

You will not be micromanaged — but you will be expected to take ownership quickly.

Over time, this role will develop into a senior operational / leadership position as the business scales.


What You’ll Be DoingProject & Operations
* Coordinating installations and site activity
* Managing installers and subcontract teams
* Ordering materials (fabric systems, track, consumables)
* Ensuring projects are delivered correctly and on time
Client & Commercial
* Handling inbound enquiries and qualifying opportunities
* Assisting with quotations and project pricing
* Managing client communication from enquiry through to delivery
* Tracking project performance, margins, and costs
Business & Growth
* Supporting the day-to-day running of Fabritech
* Assisting in developing systems and processes as the business grows
* Contributing to the expansion of Studio Creations and inSono
Compliance & Documentation
* Producing RAMS and project documentation
* Managing project records and ensuring organisation across jobs


What We’re Looking For

This role suits someone currently working in:

* Construction
* Interior fit-out
* Project management / coordination

Who wants to step up into a more commercially driven role.

You should be:

* Highly intelligent and able to think independently
* Organised and detail-focused
* Commercially aware (understanding cost, margin, value)
* Confident dealing with clients, contractors, and suppliers
* Proactive and comfortable taking ownership
* Motivated to build something — not just do a job

A degree in Business, Construction, Engineering or similar is beneficial but not essential.


Important

This is a hands-on role.

You will be expected to:

* Solve problems
* Make decisions
* Take responsibility

This is not a corporate environment — and not suited to someone looking for a low-responsibility position.


Salary & Progression

£35,000 – £45,000 depending on experience

* performance-based bonuses

Clear progression into a senior operational / leadership role within 12–24 months for the right individual.


Why This Role

Most roles at this level involve limited responsibility and slow progression.

This role offers:

* Direct exposure to running a business
* High-end projects and clients
* Rapid learning and progression
* Real responsibility from day one


How to Apply

Send your CV along with a short note explaining:

* Your current role
* Why you’re looking to move
* Why this role interests you
