Operations Manager – Telecoms

Company: Coconut Lime Ltd
Apply for the Operations Manager – Telecoms
Location: Horsham
Job Description:

Do you enjoy building structure, streamlining processes, and helping teams run properly? Are you looking for an operations role where you can genuinely take pressure off the leadership team?

This is a full-time, permanent Operations Manager role, sitting at the heart of a growing telecoms and IT business.

You’ll be office-based, especially early on, so you can properly get under the skin of the systems, people, and processes. This is a hands‑on role with real influence.

Salary

You’ll be paid £50,000–£60,000, depending on experience.

What you’ll actually be doing

You’ll come in as the operational glue of the business — overseeing onboarding, improving processes, and making sure everything runs smoothly day to day.

Your role will include:

  • Owning and improving the client onboarding process, from sale to install.
  • Liaising with suppliers and internal teams to keep everything aligned.
  • Streamlining and automating workflows where possible (CRM, onboarding, KYC, provisioning).
  • Acting as a line manager to parts of the operations team.
  • Running weekly meetings, huddles, and check‑ins to keep teams moving in the right direction.
  • Overseeing installs, open tickets, customer status, and operational priorities.
  • Putting structure around reporting, planning, and accountability.
  • Taking operational pressure off the leadership team so they can focus on growth.

This is a role where you’ll be encouraged to fix what’s broken, improve what works, and challenge processes that don’t make sense.

What we’re looking for

Ideally, you’ll:

  • Have experience in an operations role within telecoms, IT, MSP, or a similar environment.
  • Be comfortable managing onboarding, suppliers, and internal workflows.
  • Have experience improving or automating processes (CRM, workflows, forms, integrations).
  • Be confident leading people and setting clear expectations.
  • Enjoy bringing structure, clarity, and calm to busy environments.
  • Be hands‑on, practical, and happy being in the office day to day.

Experience with CRM platforms and workflow automation is a big plus, but mindset and approach matter just as much.

A bit about the environment

This is a business that values trust, autonomy, and common sense.

You won’t be micromanaged — you’ll be brought in specifically to:

  • Create structure.
  • Empower teams.
  • Remove bottlenecks.
  • Make life easier for everyone around you.

You’ll be treated well, listened to, and given the space to do what you were hired to do.
