Operations Coordinator – Property Maintenance & Major Works
📍 Wimborne, Dorset
💷 £30,000–£35,000, depending on experience
🏢 Full-time | Office-based
Recruitment Chief is working with a growing specialist property maintenance business to recruit an organised, proactive and personable Operations Coordinator.
This is far more than a traditional administration position. You will become the operational hub of the business, combining project coordination, office administration and support to the company Director.
Working across residential apartment blocks, commercial properties and care environments, you will help coordinate reactive repairs, planned maintenance, fire safety works and major refurbishment projects from initial enquiry through to completion.
The business operates within occupied buildings, meaning clear communication, careful planning and professionalism are just as important as the quality of the work being delivered.
The role
No two days will be the same. One morning, you might arrange emergency attendance following a water ingress issue. Later, you could be scheduling contractors for a refurbishment project, preparing quotations, raising invoices, arranging site access or updating clients on the progress of their work.
