Operational Change Coordinator

We’re looking for an organised and proactive Operational Change Coordinator to support the successful delivery of operational change, service improvements and new initiatives across airport parking operations at London Gatwick Airport. This is a hands-on role where you’ll work closely with senior leaders, frontline teams, client departments and contractors to make sure projects land smoothly in a live operational environment.

You’ll be a key point of coordination between operational teams, stakeholders and external partners, helping to keep activity on track through clear planning, action tracking, meeting support and timely updates.

Key Responsibilities

  • Supporting the delivery of operational change, new product implementation and service improvement initiatives.
  • Coordinating activity across senior leadership, operational teams, client departments and contractors.
  • Working with Health & Safety teams to identify and mitigate risks linked to project or product changes.
  • Facilitating project meetings, preparing agendas, capturing minutes and following up on actions.
  • Maintaining project plans and action trackers, ensuring timelines, deliverables and responsibilities are clear.
  • Tracking milestones, identifying risks or delays early, and escalating issues with clear recommendations.
  • Supporting user testing, operational trials and the rollout of new systems or processes.
  • Coordinating operational readiness activity, including training, briefing packs, documentation and SOP updates.
  • Supporting and deputising for the Senior Project Delivery Lead at client meetings and presentations when required.
  • Building strong working relationships with senior leaders, frontline operational teams, client departments and external contractors.
  • Meeting contractors on site to explain requirements, agree scope and support delivery.
  • Helping teams prepare for operational changes by coordinating communications, signage, familiarisation and training.
  • Ensuring operational guides, SOPs and customer-facing information are created, reviewed and kept up to date.

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.
