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.
