Operations Manager
If you’ve been keeping tabs on Vend you’ll know we’ve been growing a LOT lately. In the last 18 months you would have seen that we have been growing the Vend Rocket Ship at light speed and so recently we hired a Chief Operations Officer also known as the Chief of Getting Shit Done.Now; while lots of shit sure did get done. We decided to make things a little more intense, complex and lots more fun by doubling in size again. This means that we now need a team of people to help get MORE shit done globally.  We have tried doubling and now might triple in size next year for something different.The role of the Operations Manager is obviously another new role at Vend, spurred by what one can only describe as a humongous load of growth in 2014 and a humongous load more growth to come in 2015. We need someone to help scale the rocket, add extra tanks and fins and stuff to make sure we are on course and getting there fast.No two days in this role will be the same as you weave your way around facilities management of our offices globally and ensuring all our offices are fed and watered to allow them to keep the rocket ship moving.One day you may be negotiating with a lawyer in Toronto and then next you will be taking the lead role of operational projects ensuring that we are forward thinking in all our projects globally.We would love it if you have honed your kick ass operational tool kit in both large corporates and smaller agile businesses as we want you to think strategically, though move at Vend speed.If you don’t know already Vend is an award-winning web based SaaS point of sale for retail.  We’re chucking out crusty old cash registers and replacing them with iPads, touch screens and beautiful software.  We’re shaking things up and pushing out innovations, therefore finding - and meeting a huge demand for our services all over the world. We’re lovers of retail, our amazing new office in Newmarket is surrounded by retail and our equally amazing international offices are all in quality locations in cities with strong tech and retail scenes.We’re not your average company so it’s fair to say this wouldn’t be your average Operations Manager role. While we’re sure you have experience doing many of the required tasks of an Ops Manager it’s not just about what you do, it’s how you do it and at Vend this is critical.We’re looking for someone disciplined but not walk-out-the-door-at-5pm-even-if-you’re-in-the-middle-of-a-meeting, disciplined. Someone who can help lead and inspire a company full of equally inspiring people. We’re looking for someone who can work with a high performing team, ensuring you’re all aligned, working towards the same priorities and bringing out the best in each other. Vend is an ego free zone and there’s no entitlement. If you disagree with something, there’s no silent disagreement so it’s important that principle works for you, both ways.This won’t just be a job, this will be something you’ll want to pour your heart and soul into and Vend will be something you’ll treat like your own.
