Business Operations & Events Manager — High-Growth Role for a Driven Young Professional
About the Opportunity
If you’re a motivated young professional who wants more than a desk job — someone who wants to build, lead, and grow a business — this is a rare opportunity to step into a role with real ownership and impact.
You’ll help operate and expand an established hunting preserve business while also working directly with corporate clients to plan and execute events. This is a hands-on, high-energy role where no two days look the same. You’ll manage operations, build customer relationships, lead teams, and help shape the future of a growing small business.
This is the perfect role for someone who wants to accelerate their career, learn every part of a business, and grow into a senior leadership position.
What You’ll Do
- Build and maintain strong relationships with customers, corporate partners, and community groups
- Coordinate and host corporate events, group outings, and seasonal activities
- Manage day-to-day operations of an established hunting preserve
- Oversee office administration, scheduling, communication, and customer follow-up
- Train, manage, and motivate seasonal and full-time team members
- Speak confidently to groups, lead tours, and represent the business professionally
- Develop marketing ideas, outreach strategies, and customer engagement plans
- Wear multiple hats — operations, customer service, logistics, leadership, and business development
Who Thrives in This Role
- A self-starter with drive, grit, and tenacity
- Someone who wants to grow a business, not just work in one
- A natural communicator who enjoys meeting people and building relationships
- Confident speaking to groups and leading teams
- Organized, dependable, and able to manage many moving parts
- Comfortable working both in the office and hands-on outdoors
- Someone who enjoys variety and thrives in a small-business environment
- A problem-solver who takes initiative and learns quickly
Qualifications
- Strong customer service and communication skills
- Experience in leadership, event coordination, hospitality, or operations
- Ability to manage schedules, organize tasks, and keep operations running smoothly
- Comfortable working outdoors and assisting with hands-on tasks when needed
- Professional presence and confidence speaking to groups
- Willingness to work some Saturdays during peak seasons
Why This Role Stands Out
- Direct access to business ownership and leadership
- A chance to build something meaningful and grow your career quickly
- A dynamic mix of office work, customer interaction, and outdoor operations
- A supportive environment where your ideas matter
- Opportunity to shape the future of a long-standing business with a strong customer base
