Job Description

JOB PURPOSE/ SUMMARY:

Reporting directly to the President, the Business Manager is a high trust partner who supports the President and the leadership team by actively participating in key meetings, strengthening internal alignment, and representing the organization with professionalism. This role supports the President in aligning processes, systems, and culture to support leadership's strategic initiatives, priorities and organizational effectiveness. This role is both a listener and a contributor, able to integrate into discussions, offer insights, exercise independent judgement to identify risks, themes, and leadership priorities, to help guide decisions, and to ensure clarity in communication and follow through.

The Business Manager develops highquality meeting minutes, summaries, presentations, talking points, and written materials that reflect organizational priorities and leadership direction, partnering with all departments as needed to ensure alignment with company messaging and voice. This role builds strong relationships with diverse stakeholders, understands Young Brothers' operations and mission, and can communicate knowledgeably about the company in community settings when needed.

This position enhances executive effectiveness by improving communication, strengthening relationships, and supporting informed decisionmaking, while working closely with key functions across the organization. Although highly integrated with leadership, the role does not replace or assume functional leadership responsibilities.
