Operations Co-ordinator – Be the Backbone Behind Beautiful Builds
At Thompson's Group, we don’t just restore buildings - we restore character, build heritage, and create lasting beauty. But behind every expertly laid brick, beautifully plastered wall and fabulously decorated interior is a well-coordinated team, and now we are looking for an Operations Co-ordinator to keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes.
This is an office-based role at the heart of our operations, supporting our team on the ground, liaising with customers, managing project logistics, and working closely with our Project Manager to ensure everything comes together seamlessly.

Your Role Will Involve:
- Coordinating material orders to ensure smooth project delivery
