Service Operations Administrator – Join a Team That Keeps Everything Moving
Base Salary: £30,000 + £50/month personal phone allowance
Location: Office-based (near Hemel Hempstead until June/July, then likely Winnersh)
Hybrid working only required during the build-up to the office move
A leading security integrator is looking for someone who can hold the operational threads together with steady hands. If you’re the kind of administrator who stays composed while customers, technicians, and suppliers spin in orbit around you, this role may feel like familiar territory.
We’re seeking a Service Operations Administrator who will become the trusted voice of the service department. You’ll be the first point of contact for customers, the organiser behind the scenes, and the person ensuring that service tickets glide from request to completion with minimal friction. When you’re in the room, the whole operation runs smoother.
Why High Wycombe Candidates Are Ideal Because the role is hybrid only during the transition period between our Hemel Hempstead office and our future Winnersh location, candidates based in High Wycombe are particularly well-positioned. It offers an easy and balanced commute to both sites, making the interim period far more comfortable and predictable.
What You’ll Take Charge Of - You’ll manage the full lifecycle of service operations, including:
Handling service requests and assigning technicians
Monitoring inboxes, notifications, and priority calls throughout the day
Checking technicians in and out, raising flags when delays occur
Coordinating parts, materials, deliveries, and warranty processes
Reviewing completed jobs and ensuring accurate billing and documentation
Maintaining customer spreadsheets, reporting, and regular update calls
Visiting key customer sites when needed
Ensuring technician vans are stocked with essential parts
Managing follow-ups, quotes, proposals, logistics, and internal communicationWhat Makes You a Strong Fit - This environment moves quickly, you’ll thrive here if communication is your north star and organisation comes as naturally as breathing. Ideally, you’ll bring:
Experience in a service desk or operations desk role (security industry experience is a strong advantage - or similar.)
Supporting technicians, engineers, trades people etc.
Confident customer service and excellent telephone skills
The ability to multitask without losing precision
A collaborative mindset that supports both colleagues and customers
Strong Microsoft Office skills and basic financial understanding (invoices, POs, margins, mark-ups)Where You’ll Work - This is an office-based role:
Currently near Hemel Hempstead
Moving to Winnersh in June/July
You’ll only need to work in a hybrid pattern during the lead-up to the move. Once the new office is established, the role returns fully to office-based.Why This Role Matters You’re not just booking calls, you’re shaping the customer experience from the inside out. You’ll ensure technicians feel supported, customers stay informed, and the service operation flows like a well-designed circuit. The department’s success rests heavily on the clarity, consistency, and warmth you bring to the role.
If you’re ready to bring structure to busy days and help deliver a service experience that customers notice for all the right reasons, we’d love to hear from you.
