Role Overview
The Business Operations Manager at FFS plays a central role in supporting and scaling both internal operations and client service delivery across a growing portfolio of engagements.
This is a highly cross-functional role spanning operations, executive support, vendor management, and client coordination. The position serves as a key partner to the Founder and broader team-ensuring that internal systems run smoothly and that client-facing administrative and operational processes are executed with precision.
