Program Operations Coordinator

UFIT•Los Angeles, CA

6d•Onsite

About The Position

UFIT provides structured sports, physical education, and youth development programs for schools and community partners throughout Los Angeles County. Our programs combine physical activity, skill development, social-emotional learning, and exposure to college and career pathways through sports. We are seeking an organized, resourceful Program Operations Coordinator who can keep our programs, communications, marketing, and internal systems moving forward. This is a hands-on coordination role for someone who follows through, catches details, uses technology confidently, and does not need constant supervision. The Program Operations Coordinator will support the Founder and work closely with UFIT’s recruitment and field leadership team. This person will coordinate operational tasks, maintain accurate systems and records, manage administrative follow-up, and ensure UFIT’s marketing communications are consistently prepared and published. This role will begin part-time and is expected to develop into a full-time position as UFIT expands. We are looking for someone who wants to grow with the organization, take on greater responsibility over time, and help build the operational structure needed to support that growth. The right candidate knows how to use AI and automation to work efficiently—but also understands that technology does not replace accuracy, judgment, quality control, or personal accountability.
