Full job description

Operations Planner
Location: Knutsford, Cheshire (WA16)
Salary Range: £38,000 £45,000, part-time, pro rata
Reports to: Head of Engineering
Key Interlock: Finance Director / Central Finance Team

Must have full right to work as this job is not open to sponsorship

Preferable to drive due to the remote location, within a 40 minute commute

Role Overview
This is a high-level operational role designed to be the "bridge" between technical delivery and financial discipline. Reporting to the Head of Engineering, you will maintain a continuous interlock with the Finance Department to ensure the engineering team operates within budget and follows all corporate financial protocols. You will be responsible for the "non-technical" engine of the department: Budgeting, SLAs, Versioning, and Vendor Management.

Core Responsibilities
1. Finance Interlock & Budgetary Control

Financial Liaison: Act as the dedicated point of contact between Engineering and the Central Finance team. You will ensure that technical requirements are translated into accurate financial forecasts.
Budget Oversight: Provide real-time monitoring of departmental spend. You will lead monthly budget review meetings with the Head of Engineering and Finance to explain variances and adjust forecasts.
Capex/Opex Management: Assist Finance in the correct categorization of engineering spend and provide the necessary documentation for audits.

2. Vendor & Third-Party Management

Commercial Lead: Manage all Third-Party contracts and renewals. Work closely with Finance to ensure all vendors are vetted, and payment terms align with company cashflow strategies.
SLA & Performance Monitoring: Monitor vendor performance against SLAs. In the event of an SLA break, you will manage the commercial repercussions and coordinate with Finance regarding any service credits or penalties.

3. Engineering Lifecycle & Governance

Versioning & Documentation: Enforce strict Versioning standards for all technical documentation to ensure a clear audit trail for both engineering and finance purposes.
Evergreen Strategy: Manage the "Evergreen" lifecycle of hardware and software, ensuring that the financial plan accounts for necessary upgrades, patches, and system refreshes.
Process Improvement: Identify "process breaks" between Engineering and Finance workflows (e.g., PO delays, invoicing errors) and implement permanent Process Improvements.

4. Planning & Scheduling

Resource Scheduling: Lead the Scheduling and Planning of engineering resources, ensuring that project timelines are financially viable and personnel are utilized efficiently.

Mandatory Qualifications

ITIL Foundation (v3 or v4): Essential for managing SLA breaks, Evergreen cycles, and service delivery.
PRINCE2 (Foundation or Practitioner): Required for structured Planning, Scheduling, and documentation Versioning.

Requirements

Proven Experience: 4+ years in a Technical Operations or Project Coordinator role with significant financial responsibility.
Finance Interlock Experience: A track record of working closely with a Finance Director or central finance team to manage departmental budgets.
Expert Excel Skills: Ability to build complex financial trackers and operational dashboards.
