Field Operations Manager

Full-time · Medellín, Colombia

The role

We record skilled work at partner sites: workshops, factories, and farms. You lead the field team that records at them: the assistant managers who run the sites and the field engineers who run the recording days. This is a founding role, working directly with the founders.

The founders bring the sites. You make them produce. Every recording day has a plan, every engineer has a route, and every hour that leaves the floor has cleared the check. When a day is going wrong, the person the team looks to is you.

Medellín is one of our core capture markets, from garment workshops to the flower fincas around the city. The finca in our hiring puzzle is one your team would run.

What you'll do

  • Deliver the monthly target for recorded hours and sites completed as planned.
  • Hire, train, and run the field team: assistant managers and field engineers.
  • Coach and motivate the team through long days on hard floors.
  • Set the daily plan and each engineer's route every morning. Read the day's hours with the team every evening.
  • Walk every site your team records on each week. Know the owner and the foreman by name.
  • Take each newly signed site to its first recording day: consent on file, schedule agreed, floor walked, workers briefed.
  • Keep the rejection rate low and the daily reporting accurate and on time.
  • Account for every device issued to the team.

What we look for

  • Bachelor's degree.
  • 4 to 7 years in field sales or field operations, leading a team of 20 or more.
  • Area Sales Manager or Territory Sales Manager profile: you have carried a monthly target and delivered it through a team.
  • Ability to lead, coach, and develop a field team.
  • Strong work ethic and integrity. You start things without being told.
  • High agency: you decide fast with incomplete information and own the result.
  • Works well under pressure with several sites running at once.
  • Fluent Spanish and English.
  • Comfortable with hardware in your hands and dust on your shoes.
