Hire Me as Director of Operations
I help founders and execs turn that dreaded “we should get organized” conversation, into an actual operational system that people use. Not just a pretty dashboard no one opens, but rather a working system you'll want to see.
What I’m looking for
- Remote-only.
- Autonomy expected: task / outcome-based follow-up, not hourly.
- Direct access to the CEO / founder.
- Minimum compensation: $4,000 USD / month.
- Industry: SaaS is ideal, but I’ve also run ops for service/event businesses. If there’s a black box to open, I’m in.
What I actually want to do every day
- Run the work in a PM tool (Jira, ClickUp, Monday, whatever you use) and make it the single source of truth.
- Move data forward: reports, Excel/Sheets, ops metrics, “are we actually doing what we said?”
- Talk to the CEO to translate ideas → projects → owners → timelines.
If the role is mostly “wait for tasks and look busy,” it’s not for me.
How I work
I work in extremely optimized bursts of organization. I don’t do 8 hours of fake productivity. I go in, untangle, define the system, and people can actually use it.
My job is to name things, centralize work, and make decisions easier.
What you get if you hire me
- A system that isn’t just for decoration. We use it and it works.
- A real ops layer between you (vision) and the team (execution).
- Cleaner communication: who’s doing what, by when, and how we’ll know it was done.
- Faster CEO brain-to-team translation. You talk, I turn it into work.
What I need from you
- Trust. If you need to micromanage, don’t hire me.
- Access. I can’t fix ops if I don’t see the real problems.
- Consistency. If we agree Jira (or whatever) is the source of truth, we use Jira.
30-day way of working (example)
- Day 1–5: audit current ops: tools, docs, where work actually happens (not where you say it happens).
- Day 5–10: define the core workflow (requests → approval → execution → reporting).
- Day 10–20: build it inside your PM tool, create views for CEO vs. team.
- Day 20–30: tighten accountability with weekly ops review, KPI snapshot, backlog grooming.
After that, we iterate. I like short feedback loops.
Not a fit if…
- You want to approve every single task.
- You don’t want to show me your messy back office.
- You just want “documentation” without changing behavior.
- You want hourly reporting instead of outcome reporting.
Why me
I’ve done this in events, in tech-adjacent environments, and around founders with 100 ideas a week. I know how to translate them into structured work without killing their creativity.
