The candidate should be capable of taking ownership, building systems, holding teams accountable and ensuring that responsibilities are completed without continuous management follow-up.

When a problem arises, we expect the Operations Manager to identify the cause, available solutions and recommended action.

• Senior management position reporting directly to the Managing Director
• AED 5,000–7,000 monthly salary, depending on experience
