We’re hiring an Operations Manager to help keep things ticking for our team of 14. This role includes responsibility for a lot of the details that impact our people, productivity, and finances – things like benefits, payables, payroll, reporting, running events, and hiring support. If you have experience helping run a software company or agency, we’d love to meet you!
We think this position would be well suited to a 4 day-a-week arrangement. Most of the work can be done remotely, though we are looking for somebody who is able to work from our Vancouver office roughly once per week.
Steamclock is a profitable and growing studio in Vancouver that makes very nice mobile apps for interesting clients like Arc’teryx. Our focus is shipping great products, and building the company we want to work at.
Like any small company, you’ll have the chance to wear many hats – ranging from administrative to team-facing, from coordination to leadership. We’re trying to build the best darn software studio in town, and your skills and perspective will help us bring that to the next level.
For 4 days a week (80% of full time), it seems like the salary range for this role should be roughly $50-70k/yr, plus our various benefits. Actual compensation will depend on experience level and the resulting level of responsibility.
