Are you ready to run the engine room of a leading Commercial Property Organisation?

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Office Manager, Business Support Manager or Corporate Services professional ready to step into a broader leadership role with national responsibility.

  • Sydney CBD
  • $140,000-$150,000 inc super + bonus
  • High profile strategic role with budget responsibility.

Ampersand has partnered with a leading commercial property organisation with offices across Australia to appoint a National Operations Manager.

Reporting directly to the CEO, you'll play a pivotal role in ensuring the business operates efficiently, securely and consistently, while leading the corporate services function that underpins the entire organisation.

This is a highly visible position where you'll partner with senior leaders, influence operational strategy and lead a team responsible for keeping the business running smoothly every day.

About the Role

Leading a team of five direct reports, you'll oversee the delivery of national corporate services across the business, including:

  • HR operations and people support
  • Office management and administration
  • Corporate systems and outsourced IT
  • Risk, governance and compliance
  • Facilities and supplier management
  • Budget management and operational planning

Working closely with the CEO and leadership team, you'll identify opportunities to improve processes, strengthen governance and deliver a seamless employee experience across multiple offices.

What You'll Bring

We're looking for someone who enjoys wearing multiple hats and can comfortably move between strategic thinking and hands-on problem solving.

You'll likely have 3-5 years' experience in an Office Management, Corporate Services or Business Operations role and be looking for your next career move.

You'll also bring experience across several of the following areas:

  • Strong understanding of HR policies, procedures and employee lifecycle processes
  • Exposure to managing outsourced IT providers or technology vendors (you don't need to be technical, but you should understand IT infrastructure and know how to manage vendor performance)
  • Experience managing operational or corporate services budgets
  • Knowledge of governance, compliance and business operations
  • Exposure to ISO management systems, particularly ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001 and ISO 27001, would be highly regarded
  • Exceptional organisational and stakeholder management skills
  • A proactive approach with a genuine passion for continuous improvement

Why Apply?

This is an opportunity to take ownership of a highly visible leadership role where your work will have a genuine impact on how the organisation operates.

  • A broad, enterprise-wide leadership role with significant autonomy
  • Direct access to the CEO and executive leadership team
  • The opportunity to shape operational strategy and drive business improvement
  • Flexible working arrangements
  • A modern Sydney CBD office
  • Excellent long-term career prospects within a respected national organisation

If you're looking for a role where you can influence strategy, improve business performance and lead operational excellence across a national organisation, we'd love to hear from you.
