About Playbook Institute

The Role

As the Head of Operations at Playbook Institute, you'll be the systems architect behind our high-ticket coaching business. This is a role for someone who is a systems thinker with excellent project management skills. You’ll report directly to the COO and CEO, and work side by side with our Head of Creator Coaching. You'll ensure our coaching/services business runs smoothly and effectively. You'll be responsible for our client experience from start to finish while managing the teams and systems that make it all happen. This is a nitty-gritty hands-on role. You'll be in the weeds tweaking CRM processes, updating key docs, looking at client data, firefighting customer issues, etc. This is a perfect role for a scrappy operator who is eager to grow a small operation.

Core Responsibilities

  • Systems Design & Implementation: Create, optimize, and manage the operational infrastructure that powers our high-ticket and low-ticket coaching programs
  • Cross-Functional Leadership: Oversee and coordinate teams spanning accounting, operations, and curriculum development
  • Technology & Automation: Champion and implement tech solutions (including HubSpot) that drive efficiency without sacrificing quality
  • Curriculum Operations: Organize and optimize our curriculum team's workflows, ensuring timely, high-quality content development
  • Team Management : Lead both internal staff and freelancers with clear direction and accountability
  • Process Optimization: Continuously assess and improve operational processes to enhance client experience and team effectiveness

You're Our Ideal Candidate If You:

  • Have 5+ years of experience in operations with at least 3 years specifically in high-ticket coaching businesses or agency operations
  • Excel at identifying the most important problems to solve, rather than just executing assigned tasks
  • Demonstrate a proven track record of building systems that scale effectively
  • Possess exceptional project management skills in fast-paced startup environments
  • Think strategically while maintaining meticulous attention to operational details
  • Navigate ambiguity confidently and create structure where needed
  • Communicate complex ideas clearly to diverse stakeholders
  • Have deep experience with HubSpot or similar CRM/marketing automation platforms
  • Maintain a growth mindset and continuously seek improvement opportunities

Success in Your First 90 Days

Within your first 90 days, you'll have:

  • Mapped and optimized our core operational systems
  • Identified and begun implementing solutions for our most pressing operational challenges
  • Created a scalable framework for curriculum development and delivery
  • Begun implementing process solutions that increase both efficiency and quality

Benefits:

  • Fully remote role in a company with a strong international culture 
  • Competitive salary (including benefits)
  • Membership to Playbook — access to 60,000+ premium fitness workouts
  • Apple equipment
