Construction Operations Manager

Operations Manager – Infrastructure Testing (Midlands Base, National Role)

£60k–£80k + Company Tesla + Bonus

I’m supporting a major infrastructure testing business within a national group as they look to bring in a new Operations Manager to help lead the next phase of their growth.

They’re involved in large-scale projects across aviation, highways and wider UK infrastructure.

This role is perfect for someone who:

• Has strong people-leadership experience in fast-paced operational environments
• Brings at least 3 years’ solid commercial/civilian experience (private equity exposure is a bonus)
• Can manage multi-site teams, equipment, schedules and time-critical workloads
• Enjoys working closely with high-value clients across complex projects
• Has a commercial mindset and isn’t afraid to drive performance
• Wants to step into a business with real progression opportunities as part of future succession planning

Experience supporting major projects or infrastructure programmes would be a real advantage and an ex-mil background is very welcome if paired with civilian commercial exposure.

You’ll be based in the Midlands, travelling nationally through the week (home at weekends), working directly alongside senior leadership in a business that’s scaling fast.

What’s on offer:

• £60k–£80k salary
• Company Tesla
• Laptop & mobile
• Long-term progression as the business evolves
• Discretionary profit bonus

If you’d like to know more, feel free to drop me a message, I\’m happy to share the full details and have a confidential chat.

Also hiring: Operations Supervisor (Midlands-Based)

Alongside the senior role, there’s also a more junior Operations Supervisor position within the group which is fully Midlands-based (no national travel) and ideal for a service leaver stepping into their first civilian operations role.

This role doesn’t require prior industry experience and offers brilliant development in a supportive environment.

If that sounds like a fit for you or someone you know, just reach out, I\’m happy to talk through both opportunities.
