Overview
We are an established, growing professional services business seeking a Director of Operations & Technology to partner directly with the CEO and help drive the next stage of growth.
This is not a maintenance role.
This is a builder role.
The foundation is already in place. The right person will strengthen systems, improve execution, leverage technology and AI, and help create the operational infrastructure needed to support long-term growth.
The successful candidate will begin by owning operational execution and technology initiatives, with a clear path toward broader leadership responsibilities and eventual COO-level involvement.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys turning ideas into reality, building scalable systems, leveraging technology, and creating operational excellence.

• Improve automation throughout the organization
• Build operational visibility through dashboards, reporting, and metrics
• Continuously evaluate emerging technologies that can improve performance
Leadership & Growth
• Partner directly with the CEO on strategic initiatives
• Help operationalize growth plans
• Improve onboarding, training, and accountability systems
• Support operational leadership across the organization
• Over time, take on increasing leadership responsibility as the business scales
The Ideal Candidate
• Thinks in systems, processes, and leverage
• Has a bias toward execution
• Is highly organized and accountable
• Naturally identifies opportunities for improvement
• Is comfortable using technology and AI to solve business problems
• Can move between strategy and execution

Long-Term Opportunity
This role is designed for someone who wants more than a job.
The individual who demonstrates strong execution, leadership, business judgment, and operational impact will have the opportunity to grow into a broader operational leadership role with profit-sharing participation tied to company growth and success
