Role Purpose
Due to expansion Lodge Security are looking for an experienced and highly organised Office Manager to join our growing Integrated Solutions Division, based at our Redditch office. Sitting at the heart of our Technical operation (CCTV, Intruder and Fire), this role is focused on running an efficient, process led office that keeps our engineers, customer support teams and customers moving.
You'll play a key role in coordinating engineers and support teams, owning and improving our processes, and making sure every customer receives an excellent standard of service, response and communication.
A Day in the Life of a Lodge Office Manager
You will be a good communicator, a self-starter and very focused with a keen attention to detail, (plate spinning skills are a bonus!) - You're an experienced office or operations manager who thrives on bringing order to a busy, changing workload. No two days look the same for you. One morning you might be scheduling engineers and installation teams across the country, and by afternoon you're reviewing service data and KPIs to spot where we can do better and working with the team to implement improvements. The next day you're refining a process, reviewing financial data to ensure we are tracking against profitability targets and prepared for monthly invoice runs. You're comfortable working independently but also able to connect, manage and motivate the wider team to ensure deadlines are met, and you take real pride in the customer experience you deliver.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You bring a methodical, data driven approach to everything you do, know how to prioritise when everyone needs everything at once, and don't need someone looking over your shoulder to get the job done right. You'll work closely with our engineers, customer experience and management teams to keep service delivery running smoothly, commercially viable and to a consistently high standard.
You'll often be the first point of contact for our customers, so strong communication, a professional manner and a genuine focus on customer experience are just as important as your organisational ability.
