Schedule: Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM–5:00 PM Eastern Time

About the Role
The Operations Manager is responsible for overseeing the day-to-day delivery of the company's service lines, with interpreting representing the majority of the business and translation, document services, and event support making up the remainder.
