Full Job Description

Head Of Business Operations
Location: Oxfordshire
Salary: £100,000+ DOE

We're looking for an exceptional Head Of Business Operations to become the driving force behind our UK operation.

This isn't a traditional operations role. We're seeking someone who has helped build businesses, not simply maintain them. Someone who thrives in fast-moving, high-growth environments and enjoys creating structure where it doesn't yet exist.

As the senior operational leader for the UK business, you'll take ownership of everything that keeps the organisation running smoothly and scaling successfully. From processes and compliance to facilities, budgets, people, and business operations, you'll be at the centre of it all.

This role sits just below Country Manager level and offers significant visibility with senior leadership, making it an outstanding opportunity for someone looking to take the next step in their career.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Build and implement scalable operational processes that support business growth.

  • Drive continuous improvement, identifying smarter and more efficient ways of working.

  • Partner with leadership on strategic planning, resource allocation, and business priorities.

  • Oversee budgets, operational reporting, procurement, and supplier relationships.

  • Ensure compliance with contractual, regulatory, and funding requirements.

  • Manage facilities, inventory, shipping, receiving, and day-to-day site operations.

  • Lead and develop local operational and administrative team members.

  • Support recruitment, onboarding, workforce planning, and employee experience initiatives.

  • Act as the key operational link between the UK team and international stakeholders.

What We're Looking For

We're interested in people who have operated in businesses where growth, change, and ambiguity are part of everyday life.
  • Proven experience within a startup, scale-up, or rapidly growing business.

  • A track record of building processes, systems, and operational infrastructure from the ground up.

  • Strong commercial and financial acumen.

  • Excellent leadership and stakeholder management skills.

  • The ability to balance strategic thinking with hands-on execution.

  • Experience managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.

  • Exposure to government-funded projects, grants, or compliance reporting would be advantageous.
