Job description

About the Company:

Our client is an established and accredited Independent Connections Provider (ICP), specialising in the electrical design, installation, and commissioning of LV and HV systems up to 132kV. With over a decade in the industry and a highly experienced team of qualified electricians, fitters, and engineers, they deliver substation builds, extensions, and cable route projects for major clients including National Grid and SSEN.

The business is on a clear growth trajectory and is currently working towards achieving Tier 1 contractor status - this is a pivotal moment to join and help shape that journey.


The Opportunity:

This is a newly created senior leadership role, brought about by growth. The current Director has been personally managing day-to-day operations alongside their director-level responsibilities, and is now looking for an experienced Operations Manager to take full ownership of that function - freeing up leadership to focus on strategic growth.

You will lead a team of 5 Senior Project Managers delivering electrical infrastructure projects across the UK, working closely with the Director and playing a key role in the company's evolution towards Tier 1 status. There is a clear and genuine pathway to Director level for the right person looking to build a long-term career here.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Take full ownership of operations, managing and supporting a team of Senior Project Managers (5 direct reports)
  • Oversee delivery of substation builds, extensions, and cable route projects, ensuring projects are delivered safely, on time, and within budget
  • Act as a key point of contact for major clients including DNOs and National Grid
  • Support the business's strategic ambition to achieve Tier 1 contractor status
  • Provide strong, hands-on leadership to project teams, with a focus on developing talent and driving operational excellence
  • Work closely with the Director on business planning and long-term growth strategy


What We're Looking For:

  • Background in construction, contracting, or electrical infrastructure
  • Experience working with DNO's, National Grid, or SSEN
  • Substation experience essential, ideally including 132kV and 33kV
  • Circa 8-10 years' relevant industry experience
  • Experience with a Tier 1 contractor would be highly advantageous
  • A leader who is looking for a long-term role with genuine progression to director level, rather than a lateral move


Please be sure to send me an updated CV along with your contact number to r.catchpole@tgrc.com if you are interested.
