Operations Manager

Contract

Permanent

Location

Dublin, Ireland

Salary

£110,000

The Opportunity

We're partnering with a well-established and financially robust Irish engineering business to make a key early hire into their new and rapidly growing power division. This is a rare chance to join at the ground floor — with real visibility, genuine influence, and the backing of an experienced leadership team and full shared services from day one.

This is a pre-construction ownership role. You'll take projects from initial scope through design, costing and planning before handing over to the Project Manager for site delivery. Client-facing, technically credible, and commercially sharp — this is not a back-office position.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Leading pre-construction on medium and high voltage electricity infrastructure projects — from first scope to site-ready
  • Preparing estimates, bills of quantities and budgets, with full commercial rigour across all work packages
  • Serving as the key client contact pre-site — engaging confidently on technical scope, programme and approvals
  • Coordinating across design, H&S, quality and environmental workstreams
  • Managing subcontractor and supplier relationships, negotiating work packages for best value
  • Supporting tendering and bid preparation alongside the Head of Power
  • Overseeing structured handover to the Project Manager at mobilisation

What We're Looking For

  • Solid experience in MV/HV electricity infrastructure — design, pre-construction or project management
  • Working knowledge of ESB/EirGrid processes and Irish HV safety rules — essential
  • Confident estimating and programming — able to cost and plan a project with authority
  • Experience coordinating subcontractors and multidisciplinary teams
  • Strong client-facing communication — technically fluent and professionally confident
  • Proficiency in MS Project, Excel and standard PM tools
  • Contractor background preferred

The Package & Culture

Our client offers a competitive salary and benefits package reflective of the seniority of the role, hybrid working from their base, and full shared services support — finance, HR, commercial and H&S — so you can focus on delivery from day one.

Joining now means real ownership, genuine career trajectory, and the opportunity to help shape a division as it grows.
