About the Role
The General Manager, Site Operations serves as the central coordination and accountability point for the Charlotte Branding & Signage operation, reporting to the Associate Vice President, Solutions. The role drives the daily operating rhythm of the site, maintaining visibility across active work, coordinating cross-functional priorities, and ensuring projects move through project management, design, prepress, print production, warehouse/shipping, and delivery with clarity, discipline, and urgency. Acting as the connective layer between Charlotte operations and functional leadership, it supports alignment, issue resolution, schedule management, and execution accountability across all active work. It is not intended to replace functional leadership, but rather to provide site-level coordination, prioritisation, operating visibility, and escalation support so the Charlotte operation runs with clarity and consistency.
Key Responsibilities
- Own and maintain the end-to-end master production and delivery schedule for all Charlotte-driven work, aligning timelines across project management, design, prepress, print production, warehouse/shipping, and delivery.
- Coordinate priorities across project management, design, prepress, print production, warehouse/shipping, and delivery to ensure resource alignment, sequencing, production readiness, and adherence to client commitments.
- Drive execution discipline, milestone accountability, and timely escalation of risks or capacity constraints, identifying schedule conflicts early and driving resolution with stakeholders.
- Facilitate regular production and delivery meetings to ensure alignment and forward movement, tracking project health including timeline, risk, dependencies, and decision needs across all active Charlotte jobs.
- Maintain site-level reporting tools and communication rhythms that provide visibility across active work, capacity, risks, and delivery performance, reporting status as on track, at risk, delayed, or requiring leadership decision to the Associate Vice President, Solutions and functional leadership.
- Serve as the primary cross-functional integrator across Charlotte project management, design, prepress, print production, warehouse/shipping, and delivery teams, coordinating priorities between local project needs, centralised production resources, and functional leaders.
- Act as the central escalation point for site-level delivery issues and operational blockers, removing blockers by coordinating ownership, next steps, and follow-up, and facilitating rapid decision-making when priorities conflict or timelines are at risk.
- Partner with Project Management to ensure client commitments, timelines, and expectations are understood and supported internally, stepping in on high-risk, high-visibility, or operationally complex projects as needed and surfacing delivery risks before they become client-facing issues.
- Identify inefficiencies in scheduling, handoffs, planning, communication, reporting, and workflow management, and drive process improvements across project management, design, production, prepress, warehouse/shipping, and delivery.
- Lead through influence across a matrixed environment, establishing clear expectations, meeting cadences, decision pathways, and accountability routines, while building trust with functional leaders and frontline teams.
- Support the Associate Vice President, Solutions by providing local operating visibility, escalation support, and execution leadership, modelling a culture of ownership, urgency, collaboration, and operational discipline.
- Ensure adherence to company processes, workflows, quality standards, and operating expectations.
