Operations Manager

We’re seeking a hands-on Operations Manager to lead the people, processes, systems, and resources that move our work from sold-job handoff through planning, scheduling, field execution, client communication, quality control, documentation, billing readiness, and closeout.

This is not a position for someone who wants to manage from a distance. The right leader will understand the details of day-to-day operations, build trust with office and field teams, create accountability, improve processes, protect client commitments, and help LSI grow profitably without losing the high-touch service and family-owned culture that set us apart.

We are looking for someone who genuinely wants to own Operations for the long term. This role is best suited for a leader who finds purpose in developing people, strengthening systems, solving operational problems, and producing a positive impact for the team and clients.

At Langston Security & Integration (LSI), we specialize in advanced security and audio-visual systems for commercial, enterprise-level, healthcare, and multi-site properties/property management. Here, you won't just fill a role; you'll build a career, lead key teams, and make a visible impact every day in a supportive culture that values professional growth and work-life balance.

What Success Looks Like

• Operations priorities are transitioned into clear plans, owners, deadlines, and consistent follow-through.

• Project Management, Client Support, Field Operations, and Warehouse/Inventory functions work together with fewer gaps and stronger handoffs.

• Employees understand expectations, receive practical coaching, and are held accountable in a fair and consistent manner.

• ServiceTitan and other company systems contain timely, accurate, and useful operational information.

• Client concerns are addressed promptly, professionally, and through completion. 

• Operational risks involving schedules, labor, materials, budgets, quality, safety, or client commitments are identified early and actively managed.

• Processes become more repeatable and scalable while the team remains flexible enough to respond to changing business needs. 

The Leader We Are Looking For

• A strong, approachable people leader who earns the respect of both office and field employees.

• An excellent communicator who is positive, direct, professional, and comfortable addressing difficult issues when necessary.

• Highly process-oriented and organized, without becoming rigid or resistant to change.

• Adaptable and able to pivot smoothly as priorities, schedules, and client needs change.

• A quick learner and strong student of the business who is curious about systems, technology, clients, and industry practices.

• Customer-service-minded and capable of stepping into escalated client situations with sound judgment and follow-through.

• A practical partner in strategy and innovation who can convert ideas into workable processes, training, system changes, and measurable adoption. 

• Comfortable working at both the leadership level and in the operational details. 

• Motivated by long-term ownership of Operations rather than viewing the role primarily as a stepping stone to an executive title. 

Compensation:

• Salary Range - $90,000 - $105,000 annually, based on experience and qualifications

• Annual Profit-Sharing Bonus Opportunities

• Medical, Dental, Life, and Voluntary Accidental Insurance 

• 401(k) Retirement Plan with 100% Company Match up to 4%

• Section 125 Health Plan designed to help employees maximize take-home pay

• Paid Time Off

• Arizona Earned Paid Sick Time

• Employee Recognition Program with peer-nominated bonus incentives

• Team-building events and company celebrations throughout the year

• Employee and Verizon Wireless discounts

• Additional fringe benefits may be available based on position
