Learn about the principles https://beomniscient.com/principles/ that drive how we work and build a company. ABOUT THIS ROLE We're hiring a Director of Business & People Operations to own the company’s operating infrastructure. That includes utilization and capacity planning, workforce planning, the operational inputs to margin, the delivery operating system, people operations, tool governance, and the AI systems that will run much of it on autopilot. What you’ll walk into: We’re a bootstrapped, profitable 30-person agency on track for 76% revenue growth in 2026 and targeting 60% growth in 2027. We need an experienced operator to diagnose gaps, bring rigor, build systems, and fully own the function as we scale. You'll report to the CEO, join the leadership team, and manage a Senior Recruiter and Business Operations Manager. You'll collaborate closely with the Financial Controller, Chief Growth Officer, Chief Customer Officer, and Client Success Directors. AI is not a side project. We use ourselves as our own test client for AI-first workflows, and we expect this function to run on systems you build rather than hours people spend. We're looking for someone who has already done this inside an organization, not someone who has only explored or tinkered with it. More on that below. We require this role to be based in US Eastern or Central Time. YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES - Own team utilization, capacity planning, and billability. Maintain the resource model tracking team capacity and hiring needs. Forecast capacity, flag staffing risks early, and automate routine reporting. - Build and manage the workforce planning model. Serve as the central resource for headcount strategy, hiring schedules, progression paths, pay bands, and team economics to guide leadership's hiring, restructuring, and promotion decisions. - Own the operational inputs to every financial conversation. Service line margin, staffing cost, time tracking accuracy, and project profitability run through you in partnership with our Financial Controller. Build the tooling that surfaces margin anomalies and flags scope creep while it's still fixable, and compress the reporting cycle from days to hours. - Design and own the delivery operating system. SOPs, handoffs, onboarding, quality gates, and the Asana build for client work visibility. Document, own, and optimize all repeatable processes, and scope AI workflows to automate them. - Own people operations. Onboarding, ramp design, performance management, compensation strategy, multi-country logistics, org structure, and underlying systems. While the Senior Recruiter handles sourcing and candidate pipelines, you build and manage the employee onboarding and retention programs. - Own the tool stack and vendor ecosystem. Time tracking, project management, CRM, AI tools, file storage, and integrations across tooling. You decide what we use, how we use it, and when to consolidate or cut. - Manage operating cadence. Lead weekly reviews, monthly check-ins, and drive quarterly and annual planning, ensuring the leadership team makes data-informed decisions. - Drive AI and automation adoption across operations. Identify manual bottlenecks and deploy systems to eliminate them. You own the roadmap, prioritization, build-vs-buy decisions, and adoption tracking. WHAT SUCCESS LO
