Note from the Hiring Manager

This is a critical role for our company, and I am looking for someone who is looking for a place to call home. I am looking for an ambitious leader who is “hands-on” and loves GSD (Get sh*t done). I am seeking an individual that sees the value in asking questions and drilling down as well as taking pride in the ownership of their role and responsibilities associated with it. Lastly, I am looking for a leader who has been successful creating a GSD culture among their team that is also fun and motivating.


What You’ll Do

As the Director of Business Operations, you’ll work directly with the CEO to manage and execute projects related to Compliance, Benefits Administration, Immigration, Administration, IT, Insurance, and Facilities. This is an exciting opportunity for a detail-oriented, high-performing individual who’s eager to learn and grow within the role with the potential to expand into a larger leadership position over time.

  • Lead the planning, coordination, and execution of cross-functional activities and projects to ensure alignment with organizational goals and operational success.

  • Support strategic decision-making and initiatives that align with company objectives, ensuring seamless execution of complex projects and business process development.
  • Negotiate and manage high-priority projects, ensuring effective execution and resolution of issues to meet project goals.

  • Lead process documentation and continuous improvement efforts.
  • Ensure compliance with OSHA, DOT, and safety regulations, managing risks and corrective actions as needed.
  • Champion the adoption of operational systems, guiding teams in maximizing their utilization and impact on business operations.


The Ideal Candidate:

Your leadership style is collaborative and empowering, with the ability to motivate teams and drive successful outcomes. You have a proven track record of successfully managing complex projects and delivering results under tight deadlines. The ideal candidate will have:
