Who are Pickerings

Pickerings is a leading supplier of high-quality temporary buildings. We design and supply solutions to a diverse customer base, including schools needing extra classrooms, commercial businesses needing additional office space and construction sites needing a complex of offices and welfare facilities.

The Role

The Operations Manager is responsible for scheduling, coordinating and supervising the work of all operatives, ensuring that all work is delivered safely on time and within budget along with managing equipment and materials required.

About You

You'll have practical experience of industrial trades such as joinery, plumbing and electrics gained from working in construction, property maintenance or ideally the temporary or modular building industry.

You'll be someone who strives to meet deadlines, whilst always working safely and maintaining quality standards and be able to work effectively with colleagues.

Our work is physically demanding and takes place outdoors, so you should be prepared to be exposed to extremes of weather.

The Company plans to relocate the depot to Alton in Hampshire in the next 18 to 24 months and therefore expects applicants to be able to commute to this location.
