In a nutshell

At Hopkins, our purpose is to always deliver high levels of customer service and industry knowledge. Our vision is to self-deliver our sustainable projects from design through the installation period and then to maintain the buildings, ensuring they operate to the original design principles. To achieve both, we have built a team of dedicated, innovative and creative people. 

As we continue to grow our network and expand our team across the south of the UK, with hubs already in Hampshire, East Sussex and Thames Valley, we are looking to further our reach and continue to deliver great service and innovative projects to our growing client base.

Our project team consists of highly motivated and multi-disciplined Project Directors, Contracts Managers, Project Managers and Project Engineers who have a wealth of experience within the building services industry.

As an Operations Coordinator you will take point on supporting multiple project managers across a range of live projects across the south coast area, stretching from Brighton to Bournemouth, as part of within our Main Contracts team, to ensure the smooth running of the project lifecycle.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a progressive business who invest in people.
