• Building high-performing teams and developing strong leaders
• Driving accountability around operational and financial performance
• Improving efficiency, consistency, and scalability across locations

You know how to lead through others, balancing support and accountability while building trust and credibility across an organization. You're comfortable making decisions, managing change, and navigating a fast-paced environment where priorities can shift quickly.

You likely bring:

• 6+ years of progressive operations leadership experience
• Experience leading managers, supervisors, or multi-layered teams
• A track record of improving operational performance through data, KPIs, and process improvements
• Strong business acumen with experience managing budgets, financial performance, and operational metrics
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
• The ability to lead change and support organizational growth
• Experience in a field service, distributed workforce, or multi-location environment (preferred)

Most importantly, you're excited about helping build the future of a growing organization and influencing the next generation of operational leadership at UniFide CST.

Benefits:

• Company vehicle and equipment
• Competitive salary 
• Health, dental, life, and vision insurance
