We're hiring an Operations Coordinator to keep business operations running smoothly and to provide executive support to our CEO and leadership by coordinating people, paperwork, and follow-through on creative projects and talent engagements. You'll step into established workflows, receive clear direction, and have room to improve processes as you build ownership. The role starts part-time, with potential for expanded hours and broader operational responsibility.

· Deadlines, decisions, and next steps are clear; routine work reaches completion without repeated prompting.

· Agreements, financial paperwork, schedules, and records are accurate, organized, and ready for review.

· You resolve routine issues, communicate early when priorities conflict, and protect leadership's time.

· You enjoy making systems work. You are precise, resourceful, discreet, and comfortable following up with people at every level.

· You close loops. You don't confuse sending a reminder with resolving an issue.

· You turn ambiguity into clarity by implementing workable plans without creating unnecessary bureaucratic fiction.

· You stay calm when priorities change and take pride in making ambitious creative work possible.

· You welcome direct feedback, take responsibility for your work, and stay effective when deadlines and priorities shift.

· Maintain tasks, deadlines, and trackers; translate decisions into assigned actions and coordinate administrative handoffs with project teams and partners.

· Coordinate scheduling, meeting preparation, designated correspondence, and approved business travel; organize decisions and follow-up for the CEO.

· Collect and check invoices, receipts, and vendor documents; route approvals, maintain status records, and follow up with the bookkeeper and appropriate partners.

· Prepare deal memos and booking documents from approved templates and confirmed terms; coordinate review, signatures, deadlines, and booking logistics.

· Keep assigned records and instructions current, run established workflows, and propose practical improvements.

· Relevant experience in operations, project coordination, executive support, or business administration—typically 1–3 years; equivalent practical experience is welcome.

· Evidence of accurate follow-through, professional writing, sound judgment, and ownership of recurring work.

· Comfort with spreadsheets, document preparation, task tracking, and learning new systems. Entertainment-specific processes can be learned; attention to detail and dependability are essential.

Asana, Airtable, Slack, Dropbox, Word/Excel, DocuSign, and designated business-administration tools. Experience with comparable platforms is welcome.

Entertainment or talent-representation experience; familiarity with contracts, deal memos, financial paperwork, multiple business entities, or process documentation.
