    • Manage capacity, workflow and output, prioritising critical activities and flexing resources to meet changing operational demands.
    • Embed operational excellence in daily activities through root-cause problem solving, productivity tracking and continuous improvement.

    Who we’re looking for:  
    You’ll be confident motivating teams, managing performance, recognising success and handling difficult conversations.
    You’ll communicate clearly and be confident in leading huddles and delivering business updates.

    • A discretionary bonus depending on company performance
    • Private Healthcare
    • SAYE (Sharesave): discretionary scheme from time to time
    • Personal accident cover
    • Group personal pension plan where we’ll contribute up to 10%
    • Holiday - 25 days plus bank holidays
