Join Junction
Junction is a growing cinematography rental company supporting productions with camera equipment, lenses, accessories, crew, transport and prep space.
We’re a small, hands-on team that cares about great kit, good vibes, smart problem-solving and making life easier for our clients and crews. We’re looking for an experienced Operations Manager to keep the business running smoothly while our current Operations Manager takes maternity leave.
You’ll join us in September for a structured handover before taking the lead from early December.
The Role
This is a senior, hands-on role at the centre of Junction’s day-to-day operations.
You’ll manage the staff, coordinate clients, bookings, logistics, suppliers and accounts—making sure information is accurate, priorities are clear and every job optimised and when it needs to be.
The role combines client service, operational planning, account management, team leadership and systems management. It would suit someone who enjoys managing multiple moving parts, spotting problems early and finding practical solutions.

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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.

- Providing day-to-day leadership and formal line management to relevant team members

About You
You’re a calm, organised and proactive manager with the confidence to lead a team and keep people, jobs and information moving.
You’ll probably be a great fit if you:
- Can manage several priorities without losing sight of the details
- Communicate clearly and professionally with clients and colleagues

- Have experience managing people and developing their performance
- Stay level-headed when plans change or deadlines get tight
