For Companies Operations Manager / Contracts Manager
RC Frame & Groundwork Subcontractor – £30m turnover
£120,000 – £130,000 + Bonuses + Benefits
West London office with projects in London and around the South of England.
About the Employer
With a head office based around West London, this RC frame & groundwork specialist currently turns over around £30 million per annum, with individual packages ranging from £1m up to £10m each. This company is privately owned with an MD who remains hands‑on, making sure standards are maintained and the business continues to grow. The company has a strong team, with every member of the management structure working together towards common goals. The senior team quite often refer to the business as a well‑oiled machine, where each cog has a vital part to play. They are proud of their ability to secure a lot of their work through repeat business, as clients prefer to come back to them to negotiate future projects rather than the business just having to win work at open tender stages with aggressive pricing strategies. This business has plans in place to grow to £50m turnover over the next 3 years, and they have the bank balance, client list, and capability to meet that target.
About the Opportunity
As an Operations Manager within this team, your role will support the MD with running the construction side of all of the projects. You\’ll be involved from pre‑construction through to delivery. Good man management and operational skills need to be shown, along with building knowledge with regard to RC frames and groundworks. Each project will have a project manager on it, but your role will support these managers. You\’ll need to problem‑solve, look ahead, manage labour and costs across multiple sites, all while maintaining client relationships and the company\’s brand. The MD of this business is looking for someone from a trades background who understands how to build RC frames and groundworks, and has the operational skills to manage multiple sites and multiple teams. You will be his right‑hand person. The opportunity to progress into an Operations Director\’s role exists.
About the Salary / Benefits
Packages are always based on individuals\’ backgrounds and experience, but as a rough guide, I have been told to target people earning anywhere from £120,000 to £130,000 per annum. This can be broken down in a number of ways, and this business is open to people on a PAYE or self‑employed basis (including limited companies). Bonuses are available, as well as the usual fringe benefits.
About the Requirements
I am looking for an individual who started life on site in a trades position (i.e. in groundworks or formwork). Having progressed through management, you will be operating as a Contracts Manager or Operations Manager now and will be used to covering multiple live projects. You must come from this sector background and have gained this management experience while working in the subcontract concrete frame and groundwork market.
