Operations Manager - £28,000 - Edgware / Mill Hill

This is a key role in a rapidly growing new company.  Gensmile is a venture capital backed company building a new healthcare group through acquisition. The company was founded in October 2014 and has a current turnover of over £6 million. It is actively looking to grow through additional acquisitions and through organic development of the seven sites it owns already.

Reporting directly to the Operations Director, you will be a key member of the Head Office team. You will be working in a fast-paced and intellectually demanding environment. As this role supports the Operations Director, you will be involved in a varied range of activities across the business.

The role of Operations Manager will suit someone who is highly organised and enjoys working in an environment where no two days are the same. We are looking for someone who is bright, numerate and ambitious.  You are not afraid to work hard but also know how to have fun!

We will be selecting a candidate on their potential.  Their attitude and aptitude matter more to us than any specific experience.  This is a great opportunity for someone early in their career seeking a role where they will rapidly gain experience and responsibility.
