Built for agency work, not generic remote hiring.

Agency operations has to improve how work moves without turning the company into a process museum.

  • An agency-operations diagnostic around missed handoffs and manual reporting.
  • Tool screen across project management, documentation, automation, and reporting systems.
  • Reference checks with people who managed the professional inside an agency.
  • Workflow audits that find repeated manual work.
  • Automation briefs for reporting, task routing, and account-health flags.
  • SOPs that document the professional's own improvements back to the team.

Want the hire trained to run AI in the seat? We offer that as a separate, optional bootcamp — priced on its own, never bundled into the placement fee.

We say no more often than yes.

  • You need operations that touch client work directly.
  • Manual reporting and handoffs are costing senior time.
  • You want one professional to improve the system while doing the work.
  • You need a fractional COO.
  • You want an operations consultant without a placement.
  • You are not ready to change how the team works.
