Operations Director France

The opportunity

TCR France operates a national network of 13 workshops with 100 plus colleagues, managing a large fleet of assets supporting critical airport operations.

We are hiring a senior Operations Director to take full accountability for how this operation runs, every day, across the country.

This is a role for someone who wants ownership and impact. You are the right hand to the Managing Director. This is not a coordination role. You own execution.

What you will be accountable for:

• Safety first

You set the standard. No compromises. Consistency and discipline across all sites.

• One way of running

You bring consistency and predictability across the network. You build a clear operating model that works across sites while keeping local ownership.

• Performance under pressure

You define KPIs, run a strong operating rhythm, and ensure delivery across availability, quality, productivity and cost.

• Customer credibility

You are the operational counterpart for key customers. When performance matters, you step in. This is about delivery and trust.

• Leadership that sticks

You lead site managers and operational teams, raise expectations and build accountability that lasts.

• Union dialogue

You operate confidently in a unionised environment and maintain constructive dialogue while moving the business forward.

What makes you a fit

• You thrive in complex, multi‑site operational environments where expectations are high and results are visible.

• You’re a hands‑on change leader: implementing transformation, not just talking about it.

• Equally at ease with technical teams and demanding stakeholders, you adapt your style without losing credibility.

• You understand the realities of unionised environments and know how to drive progress within them.

• You work confidently in French and English.

Why this role stands out

• National scope

• High autonomy

• Direct impact on safety, customer delivery and operational performance

• This is a role for someone who wants to shape how an operation runs, not just manage what exists today.
