Job Description:

This is a highly visible role, suited to someone who enjoys bringing order to complexity, protecting service quality under pressure, and leaving behind strong, scalable operations.

Job Responsibility:

  • Leading the mobilisation and transition of new services, locations, and operating models
  • Owning operational readiness across people, process, systems, suppliers, and assets
  • Planning and delivering go-live activity, early-life support, and structured BAU handover
  • Coordinating multiple stakeholders and suppliers to deliver at pace
  • Identifying and mitigating mobilisation risks, ensuring safety, compliance, and governance standards are met
  • Supporting the removal of legacy or interim ways of working and embedding sustainable operations

Requirements:

  • Proven experience delivering mobilisations, transitions, or large-scale operational change
  • Strong understanding of operational readiness and live-environment delivery
  • Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills
  • Calm, structured, and solutions-focused approach under pressure

Nice to have:
