Hey there, I’m _, the Operations Manager here at WebPros, and your hiring manager. I’ve grown with this company over the last 8 years, starting in a role focused on supporting teams, and gradually taking on broader responsibilities across business operations. That journey has shaped how I lead today: with a deep appreciation for the behind-the-scenes work that enables others to thrive. What excites me most about leading the Operations team is being able to create structure in our growing organization and empowering others to operate with clarity and confidence. Your Role The Operations team supports internal processes across the company, and we’re looking for a detail-oriented, organized, and resourceful Procurement Specialist to support procurement.

We believe in transparency, so we’ve put in the effort to give you a real, inside look at what it’s like to work here.
