We’re looking for an Operations Manager to join the team at Build Recruitment – a specialist recruiter focused on the housing, construction and property sectors.

This is a broad, hands-on role that spans reporting, systems, marketing, IT and office management. You’ll be the person who keeps everything running – and increasingly, the person who makes it run better. If you thrive on variety, take pride in getting the detail right and want to make a genuine impact on how a growing business operates – this could be the right role for you.

What you’ll be doing

• Own internal performance reporting through OneUp, producing KPI dashboards, consultant activity reports and pipeline slides for the leadership team.
• Develop and maintain client-specific MI for MSP and framework clients, and handle ad hoc analysis as needed.
• Manage systems and platforms, including user access, licences, laptops and IT infrastructure across all offices.
• Coordinate marketing activity, support client proposals and presentations and maintain key supplier relationships.
• Provide administrative support for the Alliance MSP programme and assist with candidate compliance onboarding as required.
• Continuously improve reporting workflows and operational processes, working toward more automated and efficient ways of working over time.

What we’re looking for

• Experience in an operations role, ideally within recruitment or a sales-led environment.
• Confident managing multiple platforms and priorities without dropping the ball.
• Comfortable with data – able to turn numbers into something meaningful and present it clearly.
• An interest in automation and emerging tools, with a willingness to develop smarter workflows over time.
• Strong communicator, equally at ease with the leadership team, external suppliers and candidates.
• Discreet and dependable – particularly around sensitive employee and candidate information.
