Operations & Project Manager

At Modus Vivendi, we don't just design exceptional smart home systems - we also deliver them to the highest standard.

Forming part of our expansion plans, we are now looking for an Operations / Project Manager to take full ownership of our project delivery - leading engineers, managing projects, and ensuring every installation reflects our reputation for precision, reliability and excellence.

This is a key leadership role within the business and will play a critical part in our growth.

The Opportunity

You will take control of the delivery side of the business - managing multiple high-end residential projects while leading and organising our engineering team.

You'll be responsible for ensuring projects are:


  • Delivered on time
  • Delivered on budget
  • Delivered to the highest possible standard

You will work closely with the Directors and collaborate with the sales and design teams to ensure a seamless client journey from concept through to handover.

What You'll Do


  • Lead and manage all live projects from pre-start through to completion
  • Manage and coordinate engineers, schedules, and site activities
  • Own project timelines, budgets, procurement and resource planning
  • Act as the key point of accountability for delivery performance
  • Liaise with clients, contractors, architects and design teams
  • Ensure consistent quality control and adherence to company standards
  • Drive organisation, structure and process across all projects
  • Improve systems, reporting, and operational efficiency
  • Ensure documentation, job notes and project records are completed properly

About You


  • 5+ years' experience managing projects in the Smart Home / AV / electrical / construction sectors
  • Proven experience managing teams and multiple projects simultaneously
  • Strong commercial awareness (costs, margins, variations)
  • Highly organised, structured and process-driven
  • Calm under pressure, decisive, and solutions-focused
  • Excellent communicator with clients and site teams
  • Strong sense of ownership and accountability
  • Full UK driving licence - ideally based within 25 miles of Maidstone

You are someone who:


  • Takes control
  • Follows through
  • Holds standards
  • Doesn't let things slip
  • You align naturally with our internal standard: "Own your plan, own your work, own your team"

What We Offer


  • £50,000 - £60,000 salary (dependent on experience)
  • Company vehicle, fuel card and expenses card
  • Laptop and phone
  • Pension scheme and 25 days' holiday + bank holidays
  • Clear progression to Operations Director

Why Modus Vivendi

We are a high-performing, supportive, close-knit team built on respect, ownership and pride, delivering some of the South East's most exciting smart home projects.

We value:


  • Ownership
  • Precision
  • Follow-through
  • High standards

This is not a role for someone who wants to "manage tasks" - This is for someone who wants to take control of delivery and build something exceptional.
