Chris Corzo Injury Attorneys is a fast-growing personal injury law firm entering its next phase of scale. We are hiring an Integrator / COO to run day-to-day operations and remove the Founder as the execution bottleneck.

This role reports directly to the Founder and Visionary, Chris Corzo. It exists to own execution end-to-end, lead the leadership team, and build the systems, cadence, and accountability required to scale smoothly.

This is not a support role. This is the senior operator who runs the business.

What You Will Own

• Day-to-day operations across all departments
• Execution of firm priorities without Founder dependency
• Leadership team alignment, accountability, and results
• Operational systems, KPIs, and operating cadence
• Firm-wide decision-making and P&L ownership

Key Responsibilities

• Run the Business
  • Make operational decisions so they do not flow back to the Founder
  • Identify and permanently solve execution bottlenecks
  • Ensure the firm runs predictably and at a high standard
• Lead the Leadership Team
  • Align department heads around clear priorities and accountability
  • Drive follow-through, performance, and results
  • Address issues and conflict directly and constructively
• Translate Vision into Action
  • Turn strategy into clear plans, timelines, and owners
  • Filter and prioritize initiatives to prevent distraction
  • Ensure quarterly priorities are achieved
• Build Systems and Accountability
  • Implement and enforce KPIs, scorecards, and operating rhythms
  • Strengthen processes for clarity, consistency, and efficiency

First-Year Success Looks Like

• The Founder is no longer the execution bottleneck
• Decisions are made without escalation
• Leadership team operates with clarity and accountability
• Systems are enforced consistently
• Quarterly goals are met without chaos

Ideal Candidate

• Senior operations, COO, President, or equivalent experience
• Proven ability to run a complex, people-driven organization
• Decisive, assertive, and comfortable owning outcomes
• Strong communicator with high people judgment
• Systems-oriented and execution-focused
• Comfortable managing up to a high-idea Founder
• Law firm or professional services experience preferred
• EOS or EOS-style operating experience is a strong plus

Compensation

• Base salary: $130,000–$180,000 (experience-based)
• Performance-based upside tied to firm results
• Executive authority and seat at the table

Location

• In-office role in Baton Rouge, Louisiana

Why This Role Matters

This hire is one of the most important steps in unlocking the firm’s next level of growth. With the right person, this role allows the Founder to step fully into the Visionary role while the business runs stronger, faster, and more predictably than ever before.
