Every Body Better
Too many people live with disability not knowing there is technology and clinical guidance that could support their recovery, or simply make every day a little easier.
For over twenty-five years we have built a reputation for pioneering technologies, ideas and knowledge that restore hope and improve the lives of people living with disability. We supply electrical stimulation systems, orthotics and assistive devices to NHS services, private clinics and directly to the people who use them. More personal. More effective. More human.
What this role is for
Anatomical Concepts is a small business at an important growth point. We are opening new premises, expanding services, working towards ISO 13485 certification and strengthening the systems that support a growing business. We now need someone to lead the day to day operational running of the company, allowing the directors to focus on developing and expanding the knowledge, expertise and services our customers rely on.
You would lead the operational layer of the business: our internal policies, premises, office team and the practical systems that hold everything together. You would also help ensure that our quality processes are followed consistently, working with the Director responsible for the quality management system.
This is a varied role with genuine scope to improve how things are done. You would have autonomy from the start and direct access to the people making decisions.
What you will be responsible for
Policy and governance. Writing, implementing and reviewing our policies across employment, operations and premises, including a full policy set for our new public-facing unit.
Quality system administration. Overseeing the day to day running of our quality management system, making sure records, training and routine checks are completed properly, and following up where actions are outstanding.
The team. Supervising office staff, setting priorities, managing day to day performance and onboarding, and ensuring appropriate office coverage.
Premises and suppliers. Two units, their contracts, insurance, utilities, maintenance and upkeep. Sourcing quotes and making the case for spend.
Business administration. Overseeing routine financial administration and supporting the review and presentation of budgets and management reports. Holding the office operational budget.
Operational problem-solving and improvement. Taking ownership when unexpected issues arise, resolving them calmly, and putting practical processes in place to prevent recurrence.
