General Manager Operations

Task Personnel Solutions

Location: North West / North of England

Role: Hybrid role, with occasional working from home

Task Personnel Solutions is looking for a strong, organised and people-focused Operations Manager to help lead and grow the business.

We provide security, stewarding and facilities teams across events, venues, public spaces and workplaces. We are now looking for someone who can bring structure, confidence and energy to the day-to-day running of the company.

This is a senior, hands-on role. You will be managing people, supporting clients, keeping jobs on track, understanding the numbers and helping the business grow.

You do not need to come from a security background. You might have managed a busy bar, venue, hospitality team, events team, facilities operation or another fast-paced people-led environment.

What matters most is that you can lead people, stay organised, understand commercial priorities and get things done.

You must have

•⁠ ⁠A full UK driving licence

•⁠ ⁠Strong organisation skills

•⁠ ⁠Good IT skills, including Google Sheets, Word and general admin systems

•⁠ ⁠Experience managing teams

•⁠ ⁠Experience managing budgets

•⁠ ⁠A good understanding of compliance, processes and standards

•⁠ ⁠Confidence with numbers, finance and commercial decision-making

•⁠ ⁠A people-first approach

•⁠ ⁠Reliability and strong personal accountability

•⁠ ⁠A flexible attitude to working hours

•⁠ ⁠A willingness to learn and take on work outside the ordinary

•⁠ ⁠A sales-minded approach, with confidence speaking to clients and presenting the business

•⁠ ⁠An SIA licence or experience in security, stewarding or events

•⁠ ⁠Experience as a bar manager, venue manager, hospitality manager or similar

•⁠ ⁠A base in or around Kendal, Morecambe, Lancaster or the wider North West

The role will include

•⁠ ⁠Managing day-to-day operations across client sites and events

•⁠ ⁠Supporting staff planning, recruitment, onboarding and performance

•⁠ ⁠Making sure jobs are properly planned, staffed and delivered

•⁠ ⁠Keeping standards high across teams and supervisors

•⁠ ⁠Building strong relationships with clients

•⁠ ⁠Supporting business development and new client conversations

•⁠ ⁠Helping manage budgets, margins and operational performance

•⁠ ⁠Supporting compliance, training and internal processes

•⁠ ⁠Improving systems, communication and ways of working

•⁠ ⁠Working closely with the business owner on growth and future plans

This role would suit someone who is practical, confident and calm under pressure. Someone who can lead from the front, talk to people at every level and bring order to a busy operational environment.

If you are a strong people manager who knows how to run a team, manage the numbers and help a business grow, we would like to hear from you.
