The Role

As the Operations Manager, you will work very closely with the General Manager of the venue to ensure that the programming of the courts and pitches and customer service across the operation is delivered consistently and that the revenue targets are achieved across the sports areas of the business.

  • Ensure the tennis, sports and kids programming and clubs are optimised and that all booking procedures are followed
  • Work with the General Manager to review and enhance all programming to reflect the needs of the whole community
  • Lead and develop a team of Recreation Assistants and front-line staff
  • Day to day management of the centre, typically working opposite shifts to the GM
  • Lead responsibility for health and safety when on shift
  • Rota management and ensuring effective staffing for key events and competitions
  • Address and resolve customer complaints in person and on email.

About You

To be considered as our Sport & Leisure Operation Manager, you will need:

  • Managed a large team in a high footfall sports, recreation or leisure operation, possibly as a Senior Duty Manager, Operations Manager, Front of House Manager or Sports Programme manager.
  • Experience in sports and/or kids activity programming.
  • Excellent interpersonal and organisational skills.
  • The flexibility to work a mixture of shifts including 7am starts, 9pm finishes and working every other weekend.

We want to put everyone in the best possible position to succeed so if you think that you may need more support to complete our application process, please do get in touch.

The Royal Parks is strongly committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace and is an equal opportunities employer. We value diversity and encourage applications from candidates from all backgrounds. We believe that the more inclusive we are, the better our work will be.
