About The Position

OPSPro specializes in providing small businesses and government contractors with compliance and operational support to include HR, Payroll, Accounting, Contracting, and IT. We are hiring a high-accountability, high-ownership operator to act as the right hand to the CEO of a growing company. This is not a traditional Administrative Assistant role. This role owns the execution layer across the CEO's business and personal life, while also providing executive support to the Senior Director of Business Operations (based in Denver). You will ensure nothing falls through the cracks across leadership, operations, events, and logistics. You will be trusted to think ahead, solve problems, manage complexity, and operate with full ownership across a wide range of responsibilities.
