Operations Manager | Multi-Entity Payroll & Compliance
I help business owners run smoother operations — the systems, coordination, and follow-through that keep a company (or several) moving without things falling through the cracks. My focus is operations management: standardizing how work gets done, keeping teams and vendors coordinated, and building the documentation and tracking that make day-to-day operations repeatable. Running operations across multiple business entities, I've: Built job-tracking workbooks and standardized documentation from intake through completion Managed hiring, onboarding, scheduling, and vendor coordination across multiple locations Handled multi-entity compliance — quarterly L&I reports, LLC registrations, and DBA filings Optimized workflows and communication across business units to cut delays and rework I also own payroll operations for ~35 employees across those entities (~$100K biweekly, including tips and multi-business splits), which I process in QuickBooks Online — so I'm comfortable where operations, payroll, and reporting meet. I work in Excel/MS Office, Google Workspace, Notion, Slack, and ClickUp, and I'm available any hours, any timezone for full overlap with your team. If you need someone reliable to take operations off your plate and keep them running, send me a note about what's on your plate — I'll tell you exactly how I'd approach it.
