JOB OVERVIEW

We're a rapidly growing NYC portrait studio and we're building our dream team — fast. We need a sharp, driven Operations Lead to make it happen.
You'll work directly alongside the studio owner, leading the full hiring process for 7 roles and then stepping into the ongoing heartbeat of the operation — keeping projects moving, contractors accountable, and deliverables on time.
This is a real role with real ownership. If you love building systems, closing loops, and seeing a team come together, this is for you.
What you'll own:

Lead interviews and hiring for 7 roles: post-production, video editing, social media, content, SEO, automation, and more
Use Claude AI and Asana to run a structured, efficient hiring process — no chaos, no manual spreadsheet tracking
Manage contractors once hired: assign work, track progress, review output
Be the quality gate before anything reaches the owner
Daily meeting to sync with the owner Lea 2–6 PM EST — outside that, you run the show independently

You're the one if:

You have an engineering background — we need structured thinkers who build systems, not patch problems
You've owned projects from start to finish and have the receipts to prove it
Your English is excellent — you'll be the face of this studio in every hiring conversation
You're a natural closer — follow-ups are automatic for you, nothing slips
AI tools are already part of how you work

Why this role is exciting:
You're not joining a big company where your work disappears into the void. You're building something. Every hire you make, every system you put in place, directly shapes how this studio grows. The owner is hands-on, vision-driven, and genuinely invested in the people on her team.
To apply:
Send us resume pdf, 3–5 bullets on your background + one example of a team or process you built, project management skills. That's it. We read what you write.
