Dwelly - Run Operations Manager — Tenant Find / Property Management
Requirements
• 7–10+ years in hands-on operational management, including 3–5+ years running 100+ people through a multi-layer structure (you managed coordinators / team leads who in turn managed individual contributors) • Industries: contact centres and customer support at scale, BPO and outsourced services, field operations,, retail and branch networks are ideal backgrounds. Common denominator: high-volume, KPI-driven, distributed workforce where service level is the product • Exceptionally organised and detail-oriented. Lives in the data, reads dashboards fluently, and moves fast when the numbers drift. Makes decisions grounded in evidence, not instinct. • Exceptional people skills. Experience in hiring, performance-managing, coaching and building standards across hundreds of people via a coordinator layer • High operational rigor, “get things done” attitude • Fast-growing, operationally-intensive businesses; multi-site / multi-branch structures; managing distributed teams alongside on-the-ground teams • You should have seen 5x+ YoY growth with corresponding consequences for the team
Responsibilities
• 1. Run the operating model • Own day-to-day execution of your vertical across all integrated Dwelly agencies: enforce adherence to SOPs, dashboards and performance standards • Achieve and surpass ~5 key metrics that matter for your vertical every day and every week; hold the line on service quality at all times • 2. Performance & KPI management of the team • Track and own leading indicators across daily, weekly, and monthly KPI cadence; surface emerging risks and intervene before service quality is felt by tenants or landlords. • Run a tight performance management routine across TCs and the broader team — set expectations, identify under-performance, act quickly, document with rigour and fairness • Resolve escalations from TCs and Managing Directors — anything that requires judgement above the TC layer • 3. Lead through a Team Coordinator layer • Lead through a Team Coordinator layer • Directly manage 5–10 Team Coordinators, who in turn manage the wider team (lettings negotiators, property managers, finance associates — depending on vertical) • Lead the team through a consistent operating rhythm: daily standups, weekly 1:1s, and weekly performance reviews. Coach to raise the bar, set the standard others follow, and build a culture of accountability. Hire and exit decisively. Work in close partnership with the Talent team to keep the pipeline warm. • 4. Cross-vertical coordination & feedback • Partner with the two other Run Operations Managers, the three Heads, and the UK GM to keep the verticals running as one cohesive operation per agency. • You are the conduit between the front line and central teams: surface what's broken, what's slow, and what tenants, landlords, and contractors actually need.
