Job Description

Operational Improvement Executive / Analyst

Alderley Edge 30-34k Huge progression opportunities

Are you the person who always says,
"There must be a better way to do this"?

Do you naturally spot inefficiencies, question outdated processes, and enjoy finding smarter ways of working?

We're looking for a curious, proactive and resilient individual to join a growing Business Improvement team within a dynamic residential property group.

This isn't a corporate change consultant role.
It's hands-on, practical and delivery-focused.

You might currently work in:

  • Retail operations
  • Hospitality management
  • Customer service
  • Property or lettings
  • Multi-site operations

And be ready for your next step (or first) into operational process improvement.

What You'll Do:

  • Analyse operational workflows
  • Identify inefficiencies and remove blockers
  • Improve systems and ways of working
  • Support automation and AI-led initiatives
  • Measure performance improvements
  • Work across teams to embed practical change

We're not looking for years of formal change management experience - we're looking for mindset.

You'll need to be:

  • Naturally inquisitive
  • Analytical but practical
  • Confident communicator
  • Organised and delivery-focused
  • Tenacious and resilient
  • Tech savvy

Benefits:

  • 22 days' holiday, increasing by one day per year of service up to 25 days + Christmas shutdown + bank holidays
  • Workplace pension (statutory contributions).
  • Free breakfast and lunch provided in our onsite restaurant.
  • Free onsite parking and 5-minute walk from train station and bus stops.
  • Onsite padel court.
  • Complimentary tickets to Stockport County FC.
  • A year-round calendar of social and wellbeing events.

If you're interested in business improvement, operations, automation and making organisations work smarter - this could be your next move.
