About this role

About Dwelly Dwelly is building the AI operating system for residential lettings. Its growing network of agencies provides its AI with real-world data, continuous feedback, and control over complete workflows, making exceptional service the standard for landlords and tenants. Today, Dwelly operates more than 15,000 properties and $470 million in GMV, making it one of the UK’s ten largest lettings operators. The company has raised $263 million.

We’re a fast-growing, product-focused company, backed by top-tier investors and led by a team with deep experience in real estate, technology, and operations. Position Summary We are seeking an experienced and highly organised Run Operations Manager to be the right hand to the Head of Property Specialists and own the day-to-day execution of their vertical. Property Specialists are unique in that they are a shared service, field-based layer across Dwelly.

They carry out the work that has to happen in person: viewings, property inspections, inventory checks and more. They serve the needs of the tenant find, property management and payment functions, so that the end to end experience for tenants, landlords and contractors is seamless. You will run a team of 25+ people at start, growing to 100+ at scale, across our integrated agencies, through a layer of Team Leads. You own the structure, the scheduling, the standards and the performance of that team.

This role exists to keep the operating model running at steady state. The strategy, direction and building of the function will be led by your head alongside product, analytics and engineering. Your mandate is to enforce adherence, manage performance, resolve breakdowns, and protect service quality as the business scales and evolves. We are looking for a strong operational leader with proven ability to run large, multi-layered teams in high-volume, KPI-driven environments.

Key Responsibilities: 1. Run the operating model Own day-to-day execution of your vertical across all integrated Dwelly agencies: enforce adherence to SOPs, dashboards and performance standards Achieve and surpass ~5 key metrics that matter for your vertical every day and every week; hold the line on service quality at all times 2. Performance & KPI management of the team Track and own leading indicators across daily, weekly, and monthly KPI cadence; surface emerging risks and intervene before service quality is felt by tenants or landlords.

Cross-vertical coordination & feedback Partner with the three other Run Operations Managers, the 4 Heads, and the UK GM to keep the verticals running as one cohesive operation per agency.
