Operations Manager

Company Description

For over twenty years, the Posen Library has been producing print and digital collections of primary sources (images as well as excerpts from texts translated from over twenty languages). Experts in the field have curated these sources that represent a variety of voices from Jewish culture and history, from all over the world and from the biblical to the contemporary periods. Through them, the Posen Library seeks to fulfill its mission to provide an expansive view of Jewish culture and history and to combat the tendency to reduce and simplify debates about Jews and Judaism.

The project is in a moment of transition as we complete the print collection and expand our digital work. The operations manager will work closely with the managing editor and the CEO to ensure that existing operations, including filing and payment systems, run smoothly. The operations manager will also bring their experience in file and contact management as well as finance systems to improve our infrastructure and create efficiencies.

Operations Manager tasks include but are not limited to :

• Oversee operations systems and administration : maintain already-established technology, data, and finance systems, process payment paperwork, keep immaculate records
• Manage and coordinate book inventory and shipments
• Troubleshoot issues with infrastructure systems as they arise
• Collaborate with the managing editor and the CEO to identify areas for increased efficiency, including improving current file-sharing, finance, and contact-management systems
• Recommend solutions and manage the new systems once established
• Provide basic tech support for staff
• Assist with administrative aspects of hiring fellows and staff
