Location: Newark, NJ

Compensation: $75,000 – $80,000 base + 25% bonus target + benefits

Total Earning Potential: ~$94,000 – $100,000

About the Operations Manager Role

A national event and hospitality services company is hiring an Operations Manager in New Jersey to oversee the full event lifecycle — from budget projections and site selection to vendor contracting, food and beverage coordination, and client delivery. Our mission is to lift up small local businesses and give them bigger, better opportunities — and our next Operations Manager is the engine that keeps every event running smoothly and every client relationship thriving.

As Operations Manager, you'll work closely with our Regional Director of Operations and regional admin team. You'll develop vendor relationships, manage day-to-day event operations, own all event accounting, and continually prospect new clients and vendors to grow the business. This is a high-impact, high-visibility Operations Manager seat for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, hospitality-driven environment.

We're a hardworking team of real people who care a lot about each other and the small businesses we serve. We want an Operations Manager who fits that vibe and wants to grow with us.
