The next, improving an internal process, building executive reporting, evaluating new technology, or helping solve an operational challenge.

Improve business processes and create scalable operational systems. Build reporting, dashboards, and tools that support better decision-making. Identify opportunities to improve efficiency through technology and AI. Research business challenges and recommend practical solutions. Support office operations and employee experience initiatives. Help create alignment, accountability, and momentum across the organization. Who We're Looking For You'll likely thrive in this role if you: Take initiative without waiting to be asked. Enjoy solving problems and improving processes. Like bringing organization to ambiguity. Can balance strategic thinking with hands-on execution. Build trust quickly and communicate well with people across an organization. Enjoy learning new technology and finding smarter ways to work. Want a role that offers variety, ownership, and meaningful impact. What You'll Bring 5+ years of experience in business operations, executive operations, project management, office management, or a related field. Demonstrated success managing multiple priorities, coordinating cross-functional initiatives, and driving projects to completion. Exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail. Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to build relationships across all levels of an organization. Sound judgment, initiative, and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment. Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities with a continuous improvement mindset. Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Office, including Excel and PowerPoint. Curiosity about technology, AI, and finding better ways to work. Why Placemaker? We're a growing real estate company that believes great businesses are built by people who take ownership, think strategically, and continuously look for better ways to operate. If you're looking for an opportunity to make a meaningful impact, solve interesting business challenges, and work alongside a collaborative leadership team, we'd love to start a conversation.
