Regional Installation Manager in Watford

Due to continued expansion, the Gooding Group is looking to add to its Regional Installation Management Team in various locations around the country. We welcome applicants throughout the country who are looking to join our expanding team. The Gooding Group is a privately owned business based in Sheffield that specialises in the supply of fitted furniture to the new build sector.

We include within our offering pretty much anything that fitted furniture could entail for the New Build Sector apart from kitchens - wardrobes, understairs installs and home offices being key within our existing portfolio.

If you do not know the name the Gooding Group, you are probably not best applying. The only applicants who will get through the initial vetting phase are those whose current role or recent historic experience is directly related to the skill set we need, i.e.:

• Proven history in the management of the installation of fitted furniture to the New Build Sector with one of the other leading national organisations.
• Proven contacts with regional installers who carry out subcontract installations to new build sites.
• Proven history in sourcing new install capacity within their region.
• An understanding of the need to follow existing procedures, and add to, to ensure the kit we are installing achieves standard.
• Ensure anyone connected with our team fully complies with any and all Health and Safety requirements.
• Proven ability to engage with our customers in the appropriate manner, from Assistant Site Manager to Construction Director, with a commercial awareness of the expected communication standard.
• An understanding of the importance to secure off our customers' build programmes and then manage installations accordingly.

For clarity, these roles are field-based. While there will typically be a period of time each week working from home, the majority of your working week will be attending customer locations, be that operational sites or regional offices, carrying out inspections with our field installation teams and conducting reviews and audits on recently installed products.

This is an exciting time for the Gooding Group, during which we are going through substantial expansion, having recently moved into our purpose-built new factory. The salary will be competitive within the sector, and the motor car provided is a Skoda Superb Estate Hybrid, along with the relevant IT equipment.

Given the importance of these new additions to our team, interviews are being carried out directly by our MD, Lloyd Gooding, who looks forward to discussing things with you shortly. The likely process will be a Teams discussion soon after application, followed by a more exhaustive face-to-face interview in our factory in Sheffield.

We look forward to receiving your application but would only ask if you do not already carry out a similar role for one of our respected competitors, or have not done this in the recent past, then this role is not for you. We are looking for proven skill sets that can add to our team immediately, and individuals for whom being part of the Senior Operations Team, specifically being involved in discussions about the future direction of the company, will add to their working experience.

We look forward to meeting you.
