Operations Project Manager

We are seeking a highly organized Operations Project Manager to oversee the execution of day-to-day business operations across multiple departments for a growing media, education, and live events business.

This role is responsible for translating the founder's weekly priorities into actionable work plans, coordinating tasks across an offshore support team, monitoring project progress, ensuring deadlines are met, and maintaining accountability across multiple business functions.

The ideal candidate combines strong project management skills with operational leadership. Rather than completing every task themselves, they coordinate specialists across marketing, ecommerce, administration, finance, customer support, creative production, and tour operations while serving as the founder's primary operational point of contact.

Success in this role requires exceptional organization, proactive communication, strong judgment, and the ability to build scalable systems that reduce the founder's involvement in day-to-day execution.

This is not a traditional Executive Assistant role. The primary objective is building and managing an offshore operational engine that executes consistently with minimal founder oversight.
