  • Own firm-wide SOP development and approval — a significant current priority
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for our IT/MSP relationship (transition in progress)

  • Bring data and analysis to decisions — not just instinct
  • Build reporting tools that give leadership real visibility into operational health
  • Translate firm strategy into executable plans your teams can own

  • Identify cost-saving opportunities through process improvement and vendor management

Experience & Background

  • 5+ years of operational or business leadership experience, ideally in professional services or financial services
  • Demonstrated experience managing cross-functional teams or multiple departments
  • Strong financial acumen — you can read a budget, spot inefficiencies, and make the case for investment
  • Comfort with data and technology — you build reporting tools, you don't wait for someone else to
  • A history of operating in environments that required you to build, not just maintain
