B. About Your Role

We are looking for a Head of Operations to join our Operations Department. In this role, you will partner with the Chief Operating Officer to build and run the operating backbone of the company.

If you're passionate about driving operational efficiency, building strong internal systems, and creating high-impact processes that support company-wide performance, and if you thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative, and growth-focused environment where innovation, teamwork, and continuous learning drive success, we’d love to hear from you!

  • Lead or supervise the build of internal tools and workflows on no code or low code platforms such as Bubble, GoHighLevel or comparable solutions.
  • Build simple, reliable dashboards and recurring reports that give leadership visibility into volume, performance, risks and trends.
  • Own SaaS and tool governance for operations, including selection, onboarding, renewals, decommissioning, access control and cost optimization.
  • Lead vendor relationships where operations is the primary owner, including contracts, service levels and performance reviews.

  • High ownership mindset with a clear bias toward closure and follow through on complex, multi-step work.
