This General/Operations Manager role is about making things run. You'll own the day to day flow of a business in Syracuse, NY, turning plans into action and solving the puzzles that keep an operation humming. It's a hands on position where you're the central point connecting teams, processes, and results.

Duties & Responsibilities

• Oversee daily operational functions, from supply chain logistics to facility management.
• Develop and manage budgets, tracking performance against financial targets.
• Lead a team of supervisors or coordinators, focusing on coaching and clear communication.
• Analyze operational data to spot trends, identify inefficiencies, and recommend improvements.

• The mental stamina to juggle multiple high stakes priorities without dropping the ball.
• You're comfortable being on your feet, walking a warehouse floor or office space regularly.

What It's Like In This Role

No two days are identical. You might start your morning reviewing inventory reports, pivot to mediating a team issue by lunch, and end the day negotiating a new vendor contract.

Expect a full schedule where your input directly shapes outcomes.

Why You'll Like This Opportunity

The scope here gives you real influence over how a business performs. There's inherent variety in the work; you're never stuck doing just one thing. For managers who enjoy building processes as much as leading people, this role offers that balance. It's a chance to deepen your expertise while seeing the tangible impact of your decisions in Syracuse, NY.

Schedule & Work Type
