Job Description:

Operations Coordinator

IMMEDIATE START AND INTERVIEWS

Salary £35k-£42k

Based in Woking, Surrey

This is an office-based role: Mon to Fri 8am to 5pm

Parking available

Our client is based in Woking recruiting for an experienced Operations Coordinator.

This is a role that turns a client instruction into a scheduled, priced, completed and invoiced job. If you've coordinated engineers in a trades or maintenance business and want more ownership than a pure scheduling role gives you, this is a step up.

Key Duties:

• Building and optimising the diaries for our engineering teams across multiple trades, balancing geography, skills and job duration to keep the day running efficiently
• Managing a remote bookings team, setting daily priorities and keeping client response times on track
• Building quotations from engineer reports and site findings, sourcing materials pricing from suppliers, and following quotes through to approval
• Acting as the day-to-day contact for our letting agent clients - updates, access issues, escalations
• Allocating labour time to jobs so costing stays accurate, and raising invoices on completion
• Working with QS on measured works and variations
• Handling the live disruption: overruns, no-access, emergencies and sickness

Requirements:

• Experience coordinating, scheduling or managing operations in utilities, property maintenance or facilities management
• Commercial awareness - you can put a quote together and spot when a job isn't priced right
• Confident dealing with clients and engineers alike, and comfortable holding your ground with both
• Genuinely organised, and calm when the phone doesn't stop
• Someone who fixes the process rather than firefighting the same problem every week

Please be aware this advert will remain open until the vacancy has been filled. Interviews will take place throughout this period, therefore we encourage you to apply early to avoid disappointment.
