Assistant Operations Manager

Help Turn Daily Operations Into Consistent Results

Strong operations depend on people knowing what needs to happen, when it needs to happen, and who is responsible for moving it forward. We’re looking for an Assistant Operations Manager to support the day-to-day running of our Independence office and help keep teams, processes, and priorities aligned.

You’ll work alongside management and different departments to monitor activity, coordinate operational requirements, address routine issues, and help make sure daily responsibilities are completed efficiently.

Day to Day

• Support the Operations Manager with daily planning and coordination
• Monitor workflow across different teams and identify outstanding priorities
• Help organize staff schedules, meetings, and operational requirements
• Review daily activity and communicate important updates to management
• Coordinate information between departments to keep work progressing
• Follow up on incomplete tasks, deadlines, and operational requests
• Assist with implementing internal procedures and process changes
• Help maintain operational records, reports, and performance information
• Coordinate routine supplier, office, and resource requirements
• Assist with training materials, team communications, and internal documentation
• Help identify recurring operational issues and bring them to management’s attention
• Support the resolution of day-to-day problems affecting workflow
• Assist with planning and coordinating operational projects
• Help ensure company procedures and standards are followed consistently

What’s Important

You’ll need strong organizational skills, good judgment, and the ability to communicate effectively with different teams. The role requires someone who can look at what needs to be done, prioritize appropriately, and follow through without losing sight of the wider operation.

Previous operations, team coordination, administration, office management, project coordination, customer service, or business support experience is useful, although training on our systems and processes will be provided.

We’re looking for someone who is dependable, proactive, comfortable taking responsibility, and able to remain organized when priorities change. Confidence using spreadsheets, reports, calendars, and standard workplace software is helpful.
