When to hire

When managers are firefighting

Most teams wait too long. These are the points where the seat pays for itself immediately.

Handoffs get dropped Work stalls between teams with no clear owner.
Managers are firefighting Senior time goes on coordination, not decisions.
Suppliers chase you Orders and approvals slip past agreed dates.
Nothing is documented The process lives in one person's head.
Do any of these sound familiar?
  • Work stalls between teams with nobody chasing.
  • Sales blames delivery and delivery blames procurement.
  • The process lives in one person's head.
  • Suppliers miss dates and nobody notices early.
  • Your managers spend the day firefighting.
  • Problems surface on the day, not in the plan.

Model fit

Where your operations coordinators work best

Hire in the US when
  • The seat walks a floor, a site or a warehouse
  • The role manages onsite crews directly
  • Suppliers and inspectors expect a local contact
Hire globally when
  • Coordination happens in systems and on calls
  • The work is planning, tracking and follow-up
  • You need daily coverage without a local salary

Both models carry the same vetting bar and the same guarantee. Pricing for each is above.

Role / responsibility Global US direct hire Why
Scheduling and dispatch coordination Global Systems and calls, no site needed
Purchase order follow up Global Structured chasing, staffs globally
Supplier and vendor management Global US direct hire Depends whether suppliers expect a local contact
Warehouse or floor supervision US direct hire The seat walks the site
Process documentation Global Deliverable based, staffs globally
Inspector and regulator contact US direct hire Local presence is usually expected
Returns and claims administration Global Process work, staffs globally
Continuous improvement analysis Global Data work with no location benefit

One partner, onshore and global

A US office manager working alongside two fully managed global assistants is a Tuesday, not an exception. You pick the model per desk and we run both under one partner.

FAQ

Administrative Support staffing, answered

What roles sit inside an operations team?

Operations covers the coordination layer between functions: coordinators and managers who own throughput, project and program staff, procurement and supply chain seats, logistics and fulfillment roles, and the analysts who document and improve process. The common thread is owning handoffs rather than a single specialism.

Should operations work be onshore or remote?

Split it by whether the work is physical. Anything requiring presence on a floor, a site or a dock stays onshore. Planning, tracking, supplier follow-up and documentation run just as well remotely, which is why most clients staff a US operations lead with global coordinators behind them.

How do you vet operations candidates?

Through scenario work rather than tool tests alone: a delayed shipment, a double-booked crew, a supplier missing a deadline. Candidates are scored on how they prioritize, who they escalate to and what they document, because that is the actual job.

Can an operations hire own our process documentation?

Yes, and it is one of the highest-return first tasks. A coordinator who writes your SOPs while learning the process leaves you with documentation you did not have, which makes every later hire faster to onboard. Most clients treat the first ninety days as documentation time and get a permanent asset out of a temporary gap.

What is the difference between an operations coordinator and a project manager?

A coordinator keeps recurring work moving day to day. A project manager owns a defined piece of work with a scope, a budget and an end date. If the problem repeats weekly, hire the coordinator. If it has a deadline and a budget, hire the project manager.

Can you staff operations for a seasonal peak?

Yes. Global Fully Managed seats are month to month, so a peak team can scale up and back down without severance exposure. We scope the ramp on the discovery call so candidates are onboarded before the peak rather than during it.

What is the first operations hire we should make?

A coordinator, almost always. The instinct is to hire a manager, but early operational pain is usually execution capacity rather than decision-making capacity. A coordinator who owns handoffs and documentation frees your existing managers immediately and gives the eventual manager hire a working process to inherit.

How do we measure whether an operations hire is working?

Track the things that used to slip: on-time delivery, order accuracy, how often work waits on an owner. Operations rarely shows up in revenue directly, so agreeing two or three of those measures before the hire starts is what keeps the seat defensible when budgets get reviewed.
