Actively Interviewing
This organisation is scheduling interviews as applications come in. They're ready to hire as soon as they find the right person. Don't miss your opportunity, apply now!
We are looking for an Operations Manager to take ownership of the systems and outcomes that allow hundreds of students to learn each week - from how enquiries become enrolments, to how teaching schedules are organised across venues and schools, and how families experience the service day-to-day.
You will be responsible not just for managing these areas, but for the results they produce. You will work alongside a small team, while taking primary responsibility for how this area of the organisation operates.
Greenwich Music School is a charity providing high-quality music education for children and adults across South East London and online. Founded and led by musicians, we have grown steadily by combining strong teaching with a thoughtful and well-organised experience for students and families. Each week hundreds of students learn with our teachers in venues, partner schools and online.
As we grow our school-based provision, we are continuing to improve how the organisation works - simplifying processes, strengthening how we support teachers, and making progress and communication clearer for students and families.
You will work closely with the CEO and Principal, but day-to-day you will manage your own priorities and move work forward independently.
How the role works day-to-day
• Much of this role is carried out independently, often working remotely or on your own
• You will be responsible for managing your time and priorities without close day-to-day supervision
• Much of the work is practical and operational, focused on making day-to-day systems run clearly and efficiently.
• There is regular communication with the CEO, Principal and wider team, but the role does not involve a shared office environment
• You will need to be comfortable working in this way over extended periods
What you will be responsible for:
Student journey and communication
• Own day-to-day communication with parents through our support inbox and ticketing system
• Ensure enquiries and issues are handled promptly and clearly
• Work with a colleague to resolve queries efficiently
• Maintain a consistently high standard of written communication with families
Scheduling and capacity
• Manage teaching schedules across venues and partner schools
• Ensure teaching capacity is used effectively
• Identify and fill gaps in timetables
• Maintain accurate scheduling data in our booking platform
Enrolment and conversion
• Monitor enquiries and take practical steps to improve enquiry-to-enrolment conversion
• Ensure families are guided clearly towards appropriate lessons or courses
• Reduce unnecessary delays between enquiry and enrolment
Operational systems
• Develop and maintain clear processes and SOPs
• Improve how we use templates, saved replies and automation tools
• Simplify processes where possible, reducing unnecessary steps and communication
Operational insight
• Track and report key metrics such as capacity, enrolment and retention
• Spot patterns in enquiries, withdrawals or complaints
• Work with the leadership team to improve systems over time
This role suits someone who
• enjoys taking ownership of how things work in a small organisation
• looks for ways to simplify systems and reduce unnecessary friction
• thinks carefully about the experience for students, parents, teachers and colleagues
• focuses on the most important improvements rather than trying to do everything
• is comfortable keeping things running while building and improving systems at the same time
• writes clearly and thoughtfully, even in difficult situations
This role may not suit someone who
• prefers highly structured environments with established systems already in place
• is looking for a primarily strategic or managerial role rather than hands-on operational work
• prefers working in a busy office environment with constant interaction
• finds working independently or managing multiple priorities without close supervision challenging
What we are looking for
You might currently work in operations, programme management or service delivery in a small organisation. The key thing is that you are comfortable taking ownership of outcomes and improving processes over time.
Strong candidates typically:
• write clearly and calmly, even in difficult situations
• enjoy improving systems and reducing recurring problems
• are comfortable working independently and taking responsibility for their work
• pay close attention to detail while keeping sight of the bigger picture
• communicate clearly with colleagues and move work forward without needing constant supervision
Experience in education is welcome but not essential.
What success looks like
Within the first year:
• teaching capacity across venues and schools is actively managed and well utilised
• enquiries convert more consistently into enrolments
• operational processes are documented and working reliably
• written communication with families is clear and supportive
• the organisation runs smoothly day-to-day, with the CEO and Principal spending less time on reactive operational matters
Our mission is to enable creative, artistic and personal growth through music education, for the people of Greenwich and surrounding areas.

We want your application to demonstrate your skills, as well as show us your thought process, how you respond to problems, what you have learned from different experiences and how you communicate in your own voice. Please be reassured – we are not expecting perfection.
