Operational Manager Jobs in Easley, SC (NOW HIRING)

Greenville Together: A Home for All is a coordinated, community-wide initiative—backed by United Way of Greenville County—committed to functionally ending unsheltered homelessness in Greenville.

Greenville Together seeks a highly organized, execution-oriented, and people-centered leader to serve as Operations Manager. This role leads the day-to-day operations across all Greenville Together initiatives, ensuring strategy is translated into action and work moves forward efficiently, consistently, and in alignment with shared system goals.

The Operations Manager serves as the operational backbone of Greenville Together—overseeing implementation, coordinating partners, managing logistics and follow-through, and supporting community engagement efforts. This position requires strong project management skills, attention to detail, comfort with logistics and coordination, and the ability to keep complex, multi-partner efforts moving.

• Manage project management functions, including developing implementation plans, timelines, tracking tools, and documentation to support effective execution.


• Coordinate and manage meeting logistics, including scheduling, calendar management, room setup, materials, agendas, note-taking, and follow-up to ensure decisions and action items are captured and advanced.


• Serve as a primary point of contact for service providers, community partners, volunteers, and key stakeholders, supporting clear communication and alignment.


• Support volunteer recruitment, engagement, and retention efforts, including coordinating volunteers for meetings, events, street counts, and community engagement activities.


• Support the planning and execution of community meetings, convenings, and events tied to Greenville Together initiatives.


• Convene and support cross-sector stakeholders to align strategies, share information, and advance collaborative efforts.


• Support the design and operationalization of new strategies, pilots, and frameworks to strengthen system coordination and outcomes for people experiencing homelessness.


• Represent Greenville Together in community meetings, working groups, and partner settings as needed.


• Ensure clear, timely, and consistent communication with stakeholders to support trust, shared ownership, and momentum.

• Bachelor’s degree preferred, or equivalent combination of education and relevant professional experience, with 5+ years of experience in operations management, program management, nonprofit operations, community development, or related work.


• Demonstrated success managing complex initiatives, coordinating multiple stakeholders, and keeping work on track through strong execution.


• Experience working within cross-sector or systems-level collaborations is strongly preferred.


• Strong organizational, communication, and relationship-building skills, with the ability to manage both details and big-picture priorities.
