Operations Coordinator

Department: Operations

Location: Office based, Pershore


We’re looking for an organised, commercially minded and proactive Operations Coordinator to join our growing modular building business.

You’ll play a key part in keeping projects moving from pre-production, through manufacture and supply, right through to deployment. You’ll work closely with suppliers, production teams and management to make sure we have the right materials, resources, information and processes in place - at the right time and at the right cost.

Working within an SME means you’ll have the opportunity to make a genuine impact. We’re looking for someone who enjoys taking ownership, solving problems, improving processes and seeing the direct results of their work.

The Role

As Operations Coordinator, you’ll take responsibility for coordinating key operational and supply chain activities, helping us deliver efficiently, cost-effectively and to a consistently high standard.

You’ll be involved across the full operational journey, including:

  • Coordinating operations, project control, planning and performance reporting.
  • Supporting the pre-production, production and deployment stages of modular building projects.
  • Managing and coordinating the supply chain, including sourcing, purchasing, logistics and inventory.
  • Forecasting demand and material requirements to support efficient production and on-time delivery.
  • Sourcing materials and negotiating supplier quotations to achieve the best possible value and purchasing productivity.
  • Building strong supplier relationships, negotiating pricing and resolving material availability or delivery issues.
  • Identifying, assessing and developing new suppliers to strengthen our supply network and improve our cost base.
  • Deciding what resources are required and ensuring appropriate stock levels are maintained.
  • Monitoring purchasing and production costs and negotiating with suppliers to ensure projects remain commercially viable.
  • Establishing and maintaining quality standards, with a strong focus on continuous improvement and Right First Time.
  • Collating and analysing operational data and producing production and performance reports using Connecteam and Monday.com.
  • Providing accurate and timely information to the production team through Oneflow, ensuring all required documentation is completed and submitted correctly.
  • Identifying opportunities to improve efficiency, reduce costs and strengthen operational processes.
  • Working closely with colleagues across the business to keep projects on track and meet deadlines.

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.
