Our purpose is simple: to save lives at sea. 24 hours a day, every day, RNLI lifesavers are ready to launch to the rescue. Our crews need a dedicated, talented team behind them, and that is where you come in.

We are looking for an Area Operations Manager to join our Wales, West and Isle of Man regional team between Silloth – Lytham St Annes. You will be responsible for visibly leading and managing the people across your designated area, to ensure you are delivering a safe, effective and inclusive lifeboat service.

• Salary: £41,242 - £48,520 (dependent on experience)
• 26 days’ annual leave (plus Bank Holiday days)
• Competitive pension scheme

About the role

As Area Operations Manager, working alongside an Area Technical Manager you will provide leadership, direction and support to your teams in an active maritime operational environment, looking after both full time staff and volunteers.

Working as a part of the regional team you will be a credible people manager used to leading in an operational maritime environment. You will:

• Provide leadership, direction, management and guidance to a group of lifeboat stations, ensuring they are operating in line with RNLI values, policies and procedures, to deliver the core lifeboat service.
• Inspire, lead, support, coach and develop your team, promoting interpersonal relationships, in order to create an inclusive environment for all RNLI people.
• Collaborate with other colleagues within the region to deliver the RNLI’s lifesaving service and objectives through operational support, education, influence and education.

About you

The role of the RNLI Area Operations Manager is to provide support and management to our lifeboat stations within the region. Each of these stations is managed by a volunteer Lifeboat Operations Manager, with the majority of boat and shore crew being volunteers.

In addition to providing day to day support to your stations, you will be busy carrying out assurance activities at your stations throughout the year, in order to ensure that they are being run in a safe and legally compliant way.

You will be an experienced people manager and have experience in the marine environment. Although you will not be a formal part of the lifeboat crews, you will be expected to go afloat with your team, as you are ultimately accountable to the Regional Operations Lead for the operational effectiveness and safety of your station teams.

You will:

• Inspire, lead, support, coach and develop your team of staff and volunteers, promoting interpersonal relationships, in order to create an inclusive environment for all RNLI people.
• Actively manage and be responsible for the safe and effective delivery of the RNLI’s lifesaving services through all aspects of a defined assurance framework.
• Collaborate with other managers within the Region to deliver the RNLI’s lifesaving service and objectives through operational support, influence and education.

We are looking for a genuine team player who can bring their skills and experience to help deliver lifesaving services in this area. This is not a 9-5 job; for you it will be a passion, being prepared to work in the evenings and occasional weekends to support your stations and volunteers at a time that suits them. You will also be on a 8-10 week duty rota, and will be prepared to turn out to support your stations when they need you, sometimes at unsociable hours.

As part of the role, the successful candidate will be expected to travel throughout the RNLI Wales, West and IOM Region for meetings and to support other regional managers as well as undertake occasional travel within the UK and Ireland.

So, if you are ready for your next exciting challenge as our new Area Operations Manager, and if you consider yourself to be someone who is a natural leader who can inspire and motivate a team of dedicated people then please apply via the button shown.
