At TLG, we’re passionate about building an exceptional staff team that’s committed to making a real difference in the lives of struggling children across the UK. We’re always on the lookout for great people to journey with us towards our vision, and we’re excited to offer a unique opportunity for a motivated and mission-driven individual to join us as Operations Manager.

About the role

The Operations Manager sits at the very heart of TLG, working closely with the Executive Director to turn vision into reality and ensure the organisation runs smoothly at every level. From trustee board and governance rhythms, through the leadership team, and out across the whole organisation, this role is pivotal in holding together the systems, structures and environments that enable TLG to flourish.

Our Operations Manager will lead and coordinate core organisational functions, champion a healthy and effective office culture, and provide confident, cross‑organisational leadership. With oversight of strategic and operational coordination, they will ensure that TLG’s systems, rhythms and ways of working are not just efficient, but actively support our people to thrive and our mission to be lived out day‑to‑day.

Your Impact

We’re looking for someone who brings clarity, steadiness and strong operational instincts to a fast‑moving, purpose‑driven organisation. They will thrive on making organisational life run smoothly - someone who can confidently hold the rhythms, plans and processes that keep TLG functioning at its best, while translating bigger strategic priorities into clear, practical action.

This person will be naturally organised, proactive in spotting improvements and able to simplify complexity into manageable systems that serve the whole team. They will be comfortable influencing across the organisation, building trust, and partnering well with others. Above all, they will care deeply about TLG’s mission and bring a thoughtful, solutions-focused approach that strengthens our culture, compliance and operational excellence.

Job Purpose

At the heart of the Operations Manager role is the opportunity to shape how TLG works at its best. This role brings strategic insight to the design and continual improvement of our organisational rhythms - streamlining key processes, strengthening ways of working, and unlocking efficiencies that free our people to focus on what matters most. By stewarding the operational heartbeat of TLG, the Operations Manager ensures that our rhythms are not only well‑managed, but intentionally aligned with our mission, enabling clarity and momentum across the organisation.

TLG is a Christian charity and, as a team, we want to bring our faith to the work we do; as such, we are recruiting an individual with a strong and vibrant Christian faith. We would welcome applications from candidates from diverse backgrounds to enable us to better reflect the needs of the communities we serve.
