The Operations Manager is a newly added leadership role created to support significant growth in the market. This position is intended for a hands-on, on-site leader who can help stabilize, scale, and continue developing the operation as the business expands. This leader will be on-site five days per week and serve as a key operational owner for the location. This should be a leader who can operate at multiple levels within the market: close enough to the work to drive daily execution, but broad enough in scope to influence team development, operational discipline, client satisfaction, compliance, financial performance, and continued growth. The Operations Manager will be responsible for leading day-to-day operations, developing frontline leaders and team members, strengthening processes, and ensuring the operation is positioned to support both current business needs and future market growth. This role requires someone who can balance urgency with structure, jump in when needed, and build routines that help the team perform consistently over time. This role may require limited travel outside of the working area.
