The opportunity

We value people who care about the craft, and we're searching for an Operations Manager who feels the same way. The offer reads simply — full-time, $88,000 - $139,000, 7 years, and a manager role where ownership is not a perk but the point.

Key Responsibilities

  • Keep Customer Service handoffs warm so Asheville partners never feel dropped
  • Show up for the unglamorous general maintenance nobody volunteers for
  • Keep a steady hand on BKD accounts when volume spikes
  • Own assigned projects from kickoff through final delivery
  • Read between the lines of what Asheville customers actually need
  • Keep showing up for the Asheville, NC work after the launch buzz fades
  • Build the Presentation Skills habits a manager role can lean on for years

What You'll Bring

  • Demonstrated ability to teach what you know to someone greener
  • Strong rapport-building skills and a genuinely positive presence
  • A community-minded bias toward action, balanced by knowing when to wait
  • The judgment to say no to good ideas at the wrong time
  • A BKD mindset: scrappy today, scalable tomorrow
  • Real proficiency with Customer Service, plus willingness to learn Goal Setting fast
  • 7+ years of Presentation Skills reps, not just Presentation Skills exposure

Equal parts laboratory and workshop, BKD builds high-growth general products that hold up far beyond the borders of Asheville, NC. Slack threads here stay civil because we critique the Problem Solving work, not the human behind it.

Expect $88,000 - $139,000, yes, but also expect the kind of benefits and remote flexibility that make Mondays in Asheville feel lighter.
