Company Overview:

FIM (Fulcrum Infrastructure Management) is a management services company, managing social infrastructure assets on behalf of our parent company; global infrastructure investment company, Meridiam.

About the Role:

We are seeking an experienced and pro-active Interim Operations Manager to join our dynamic team in London. In this critical role, you will be responsible for overseeing daily operations and implementing strategic initiatives to enhance efficiency and productivity across various departments.

You will work closely with senior management to assess current operational processes, identify areas for improvement, and execute effective solutions that align with our company's objectives.

About You:

The ideal candidate will possess excellent leadership skills, a strong analytical mindset, and the ability to foster collaboration among team members. You will play a pivotal role in ensuring that the organisation meets its operational goals while maintaining a high standard of quality in service delivery.

Your expertise will be instrumental in shaping our operational strategies, making an immediate impact on our consulting practices, and setting the groundwork for sustainable growth and success.

You may not have experience in a healthcare setting, although this would be desirable, but you must have at least 5 years' experience in an equivalent social infrastructure PFI model, such as education or 'blue light'.

Key Skills:

You will be very familiar with PFI / PPP contractual arrangements and able to demonstrate an understanding of the environment and dynamic this creates, particularly when managing relationships with key stakeholders and organisations.

You will be analytical, with exceptional problem-solving skills that you can apply in a complex matrixed organisation. You will value data-driven information with an ability to interpret and report accordingly, including presenting to the board if required.

An understanding of project companies, SPVs, and financial management in this environment is desirable.
