Office Operations Manager

Northwest Registered Agent is looking for a Hub Manager to launch and lead our brand-new hub in Birmingham, Alabama, located at 2121 1st Ave N Birmingham, AL 35203. This is a full-time, Monday-Friday, in-office position with a unique opportunity to help establish a new office, build a strong team culture, and play a key role in its long-term success.

This is a hands-on leadership role managing a small, dynamic office. You'll report to a Regional Hub Director and collaborate closely with other Hub Managers and internal departments to support your team and serve clients. As the founding Hub Manager for this location, you'll help establish day-to-day operations, onboard and develop new team members, and shape the culture and execution of the office. You'll learn every function in the office, coach employees, solve problems, and help your team succeed. You'll have the opportunity to make decisions that shape your office while implementing established company processes, adapting to business needs, and partnering closely with leadership to ensure consistent execution. We're seeking self-motivated leaders who can wear multiple hats, demonstrate patience and adaptability, stay excited about change, and genuinely care about developing people while driving operational excellence.

At Northwest Registered Agent, we believe in hiring good people and giving them the autonomy they need to succeed. We are looking for leaders who approach their work as if it were their own business. We trust our managers to make decisions, remove obstacles, support their teams, and interact with clients and employees in a genuine and personable manner. We operate with autonomy and expect you to make good decisions even when there isn't a clear policy. If it's the right thing for the client or your team, we want you to do it.

Your story matters to us! We love to see a cover letter; tell us about your leadership approach, experience, and what excites you about this opportunity.

• Build external relationships – Develop connections with Secretary of State offices, local agencies, business organizations, and community stakeholders. Represent the company as a trusted local resource.
• Stay current on regulations and company offerings – Learn filing requirements, compliance services, registered agent services, and keep your team informed.
