Operations Assistant

An Operations Assistant sits between a team assistant and an operations manager. You're not a specialist. You're a generalist who moves fast, picks up context quickly, and applies good judgment across whatever the operations team needs most right now.

You'll work directly with the operations team of one of the fastest-growing US-based AI energy infrastructure companies. One week you're coordinating interviews for a recruiting sprint. The next you're processing invoices, chasing supplier quotes, or keeping a sales pipeline clean before quarter close. No two weeks are the same.

We train you on the tools and workflows that run world-class companies, then place you inside a high-performance operations team that needs hands they can trust.

This is a launchpad. Operations Assistants at top startups go on to become operations managers, team leads, and specialists in recruiting, finance, or procurement. You won't be pushing tickets in a silo. You'll see how one of the world's most ambitious companies gets built from the inside.

  • Execute and close tasks delegated by the operations team. Fast, complete, no loose ends

  • Recruiting support: interview scheduling, candidate communication, pipeline upkeep

  • Finance support: invoice processing, expense tracking, payment preparation

  • Sales support: CRM hygiene, offer preparation, follow-up coordination

  • Procurement support: supplier research, quote comparisons, order tracking

  • Whatever is the highest priority that week
