Oversee the operational facets of the US branch.
Offer guidance, mentorship, and support during the expansion of the office.

Uphold adherence to Federal Explosives Law and Regulations by instituting and upholding stringent operational processes, safety measures, and risk management strategies, in collaboration with the UK and the rest of the world Operations Manager.

Cultivate significant relationships with principal clients, understanding their unique needs and customising Venterra's offerings and solutions to fulfil these demands, thereby building client confidence.

Engage in business development tasks, such as identifying new prospects, participating in industry events, and networking to enhance Venterra's visibility and market share in the US.

Keep abreast of industry developments, regulatory shifts, and competitors' actions, offering strategic insights and suggestions to promote ongoing enhancement and innovation within the organisation.

Lead the planning and execution of projects with support from the UK and the rest of the world Operations Manager, demonstrating proficiency in managing projects of various sizes and types, ensuring delivery within budgetary and temporal limits.

Commit to ongoing specialist development to identify and address technical or procedural challenges.
Hone skills in creating and assessing documents, ensuring both internal and external documentation meets the requisite quality standards.
Experience with UXO is highly desirable.

Expertise required:


Possess strong leadership qualities, with a skill for motivating and inspiring team members, driving performance excellence, and nurturing a cooperative workplace atmosphere.
