Philippines Team Manager (Operations & Performance)

Lead And Elevate A High-Impact Remote Team

Company Overview
The Opportunity Hub UK is a recruitment technology and consultancy business connecting UK employers with exceptional talent. We combine a SaaS hiring platform (theohub.global) with hands-on recruitment consulting services, delivering measurable hiring outcomes across multiple industries.

Job Overview
This is a hands on leadership role with a clear mission: build and lead a high performing Philippines based team across sales, recruitment delivery, marketing, and data operations.

You will act as the key link between International leadership and the remote team, ensuring clear communication, structured workflows, and consistent delivery against targets.
