What are the responsibilities and job description for the Director of Operations - Dallas Facility position at Grüns?
We're so happy you're here! Thank you for checking our job out and we hope to have the chance to meet you in our interview process!
About The Role
We are looking for an experienced and visionary Director of Operations - Dallas Facility. This role is pivotal to driving operational efficiency, cost savings, and building a high-performing team aligned with our business goals.
This role is onsite at our Roanoke Dallas location.
In this role, you will:
At Grüns, we believe that foundational nutrition should be simple and convenient for everyone. We're dedicated to bringing comprehensive and real nutrition to you through our gummies, formulated from 60 nutrient-dense and whole-food ingredients. Simply enjoy a grab-and-go snack pack of gummies daily whenever fits best in your schedule and wherever life takes you.
Like you, we were disappointed. There's an infinite number of "nutrition" companies, all focused on what's best for them — not what's best for you. Hundreds of products to sell you on, low-quality ingredients, and small nutrient doses. We've seen it all.
So we decided it was time to fix it. No more choking on and popping pills like a pharmacy. No more clean-up and disgust from gross powders. And no more cobbling together handfuls to dozens of supplements. Grüns is comprehensive nutrition, made convenient and delicious.
Our culture:
For every role, we aim to have highly competitive compensation -- and equity, as our growth should lead to your growth.
We have a fully remote, high-trust work environment - but also come together on a quarterly basis for amazing off-sites where we can connect IRL.
Everyone at Grüns works hard, but we believe in wellness and balance too. We have super strong benefits coverage -- for you and your family. We have unlimited PTO. And everyone who joins gets a free Grüns subscription, a $150/month wellness bonus, and an Oura ring and membership to track their health.
