About the Company

This organization operates across three verticals: real estate investment, private lending, and entrepreneurial ventures. Real estate investment includes acquisitions and asset operations. Private lending includes residential and commercial lending operations. Investor relationships span both verticals, supported by the operational infrastructure that runs across all of them.

The company is founder-led, fast-moving, and highly entrepreneurial. We value accountability, disciplined execution, calm operations, and long-term relationship building over corporate bureaucracy.

This is a small, tight-knit organization. Every person on the team punches above their weight. The right candidate will do the same.

The founder operates as a classic EOS Visionary and is seeking a highly capable Integrator who can translate ideas into execution, build operational structure, and create organizational clarity across the business.

Role Overview

We are seeking a high-level Integrator and COO to serve as the operational counterpart to the founder and the connective force across the organization.

This role is deeply aligned with the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS). The ideal candidate understands how to bring structure to visionary thinking, create accountability rhythms, establish operational clarity, and ensure priorities are executed consistently across the business.

The founder moves quickly and operates with intensity. This role requires the opposite temperament on the surface and the same standard underneath. We are looking for the yin to the yang. Calm, structured, and steady, while still operating at the speed and standard of an intense founder-led organization.

The right person is not simply an executor.

They are a business operator.

Someone who can absorb ideas quickly, pressure-test them operationally, translate them into clear plans, coordinate execution across the team, and ensure momentum continues without the founder needing to stay involved in every detail.

A defining trait of the right candidate is this: give them 60 percent of the puzzle and they go figure out how to solve the rest. They do not wait for the remaining pieces. They do not require everything mapped out in advance. They take partial direction, fill in the gaps with sound judgment, and come back with an executed plan.

This role will own operational cadence, accountability systems, communication flow, team alignment, process refinement, financial operational oversight, and organizational follow-through. It is a true operational leadership position responsible for helping the business scale calmly, predictably, and sustainably.
