What are the responsibilities and job description for the đ§ Client Experience & Operations Manager position at The Sauna Place?
The Sauna Place is an Inc. 5000, fast-growing leader in the luxury home wellness industry. We design, build, and sell premium saunas, steam solutions, and cold plungesâcombining timeless craftsmanship with modern operations and e-commerce excellence.
Weâre scaling rapidly, and weâre building the internal systems and team needed to support that growth without losing our high-touch customer experience.
Weâre hiring a Client Experience & Operations Manager to become the front-office backbone of the company; the person who ensures customers are taken care of, operations run cleanly, and leadership stays focused on the work that truly moves the business forward.
This is not a receptionist role.
This is not a passive administrative role.
This is an ownership role at the intersection of customer experience, internal operations, and commercial discipline.
Youâll manage the front line of customer communication, bring structure to messy workflows, act as a second set of eyes on pricing and margin accuracy, and ensure that nothingâemails, orders, follow-ups, or detailsâfalls through the cracks.
If you enjoy being the person who brings clarity, order, and momentum to a growing business, this role will feel deeply satisfying.
