What Does a Operations Manager Do?
An operations manager makes the day-to-day machine work — designing processes, coordinating teams, managing tools and budgets, and removing friction so the rest of the company can focus. In startups the role is broad, spanning anything that keeps things moving.
On remote teams, operations is largely about documentation, systems and async coordination, which suits distributed work well. Organisation and problem-solving are the core skills.
