You will coordinate technical service schedules, production-aligned logistics, and project documentation, while supporting executive priorities including planning, communication, and follow-through on key initiatives. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in fast-paced manufacturing or themed entertainment environments and enjoys keeping cross-functional teams aligned and executing at a high level.

  • Maintain accurate contracts, service agreements, and project documentation in collaboration with Legal, Manufacturing, and Operations teams.

  • Capture action items and drive follow-up across cross-functional meetings, including manufacturing, engineering, and client-facing discussions.

  • Support continuous improvement efforts, resource planning, and operational reporting to optimize service delivery and field performance.

  • Manage complex calendars, coordinate leadership meetings, and support executive travel aligned with operational priorities.

  • Prepare presentations, reports, and status updates related to manufacturing, service operations, and key initiatives.

  • Track and help execute strategic priorities, ensuring alignment between leadership direction and operational follow-through.

  • Handle sensitive business information with discretion and professionalism.

  • 5+ years of experience in operations, manufacturing, service coordination, or project coordination; experience supporting senior leadership strongly preferred.

  • Strong organizational and problem-solving skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities in a dynamic, operations-driven environment.

  • Effective communicator, comfortable working across shop floor teams, field technicians, engineers, and executive leadership.

  • Demonstrated experience coordinating travel logistics, vendors, and budgets within operational or service-based environments.

  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Excel, Outlook, Teams); experience with Smartsheet, QuickBooks, or ERP systems is a plus.

  • Highly reliable, detail-oriented, and proactive, with a hands-on approach to supporting both operations and leadership.
