Operations Manager - Property Development | Angel, London | £55,000-£65,000 | Temp to Perm
You're the person who makes a business work properly.
You've run an office, kept the paperwork in order, chased the money and dealt with managing agents. And you've done it without anyone checking up on you. You like being the one who knows where everything is and what's still outstanding.
Now you want a role where that's the job, and where it's properly valued.
Why you'll want this
- A competitive salary of £55,000-£65,000
- Immediate start (initially temp contract to get you swiftly onboarded, you'll move into a permanent contract ASAP)
- A visible role where your impact is noticed straight away
- A business that's building structure, so you'll shape how things are done rather than inherit someone else's way
The opportunity
A growing London property developer with residential and commercial schemes across London and the South is building a more structured, professional operation. They now need someone to own the day-to-day running of the business so they can focus on delivery, sales and growth.
This is not a PA role. It's a hands-on operations role where you'll work directly with the directors and have real ownership from day one.
What you'll own
- The day-to-day running of the London office, including administration, facilities, records and systems
- Property and estate management administration, working with external managing agents
- Insurance policies, renewals and documentation
- Credit control and invoice management, including clearing an existing backlog and setting up processes so it doesn't build up again
- AML documentation and compliance records
- Working with Finance, Sales and Marketing so nothing gets missed
You’ll fit if you have
- Experience as an Operations Manager, Office Manager, Business Support Manager or Senior Property Administrator
- A background in property development, real estate investment, property management, a managing agent or construction
- Experience in a smaller business where you've covered a lot of ground on your own
- Confidence with invoices, accounts administration and chasing payments
- Excellent organisation and attention to detail, and the discretion that comes with handling sensitive commercial information
- The confidence to deal with directors, agents and external partners as an equal
The practical details
Office-based in Angel, Islington, five days a week, Monday to Friday, 9am-6pm with some flexibility.
The business wants someone who can start soon, so if you're available now or on short notice.
