Operations Director
National Physical Laboratory | Teddington 
£ Commensurate 


The National Physical Laboratory (NPL) is the UK’s National Measurement Institute providing the measurement expertise that underpins UK prosperity and quality of life. From unhackable quantum communications and superfast 5G communications to antibiotic alternatives and more effective cancer diagnosis and treatments, technological advances must be built on a foundation of reliable measurement to succeed. Building on more than a century’s worth of expertise, NPL’s science, engineering and technology makes this possible. 

We are looking for a dynamic, strategic thinker who will create an ambitious future for NPL Operations and drive change that creates the best possible working environment. We expect the successful candidate to bring innovative ideas and to delicately balance multiple stakeholder needs in delivering a smooth operation for today and tomorrow.

 
The successful candidate will have experience in managing a broad stakeholder landscape and delivering big change projects with impact. We are looking for evidence of leading complex, multi-faceted work place operations within a demanding and changing portfolio, having built strong relationships with peers and external partners. Experience of inspiring diverse leaders with a tailored approach to deliver success, is absolutely key. 

In a role where the successful candidate will not stand still, this person will be a natural and competent strategic thinker, motivated to make decisions driven by our values, vision and strategy. 

What we are really looking for is a futurist. Someone with passion and potential who can clearly see their way from where we are to a future state, making it a reality.
