Job Description

Position :

The Junior Operations Manager role is a position for someone a bit of management experience, both in managing people and in managing projects. You will have to learn our system inside and out, to be able to do everything that a more junior level employee can do and to think systematically to organize processes to boot. This position allows for professional development, acquisition of new skills, an opportunity to strengthen your management skills, all within an international and multilingual work environment. Your main responsibility is to ensure everything is running smoothly pre/during/post interview.

We want some bright new colleagues that can help bring organization and rigor to our team. If you think that you have the skills and the mindset to grow with us, apply and join us in Beijing. There is a potential for a role in Shanghai as well.
