Round Hill Capital Partners
Overview
Chief Operating Officer - Events / Scenic Fabrication / Production
Compensation:
$250,000 base + bonus
Location:
NYC (Brooklyn) | On-site with occasional client/site travel
Type:
Full-time
About The Company We’re a growth-minded events and scenic fabrication partner serving film/TV, live events, experiential/brand activations, and corporate environments. Our in-house capabilities span carpentry, metal, CNC/waterjet, scenic paint, and large-format graphics, enabling fast, high-quality builds from design assist through install.
The Opportunity As COO, you’ll be the CEO’s key partner and second-in-command, accountable for P&L execution and the operating system of the business. You’ll align people, process, and production to scale throughput, protect margin, and deliver consistently great work.
What You’ll Do You’ll own day-to-day operations and the longer-term operating plan - driving scheduling and capacity, job costing and margin, quality and safety, procurement and logistics, and the performance of production, PM, estimating, and engineering/drafting. You’ll install a clear operating cadence (stand-ups, stage gates, post-mortems), standardize intake and handoffs, strengthen change-order discipline, and build an accountable, craft-driven culture. You’ll sharpen KPI reporting (on-time delivery, GM%, labor utilization, rework, safety), lead continuous improvement (SOPs, 5S/Lean), and evolve systems (ERP/MRP, scheduling, dashboards). You’ll partner with sales on feasibility, pricing, and capacity planning to convert clean, profitable work.
Focus Areas
Delivery & Margin: Raise OTD, reduce rework/expedites, and improve job-level GM%.
Planning & Scheduling: Single source of truth for schedule; capacity modeling by discipline/shift.
People & Culture: Hire, coach, and develop leads/PMs; high bar for safety and craftsmanship.
Process & Systems: Standardize job travelers, stage gates, change-order control; mature ERP/MRP.
Procurement & Vendors: Material planning, preferred vendors, smart buy vs. build decisions.
Safety & Compliance: OSHA programs, training, audits, and continuous improvement.
What You’ll Bring
10–15+ years leading operations in scenic fabrication, exhibit/trade show, custom millwork/metal, or event production; 5+ years at a GM/COO/Head-of-Ops level.
Proven record scaling throughput while improving on-time delivery and gross margin.
Depth in job costing/WIP, scheduling/capacity planning, and change-order governance.
Working knowledge of drawings/materials/process (CNC, metal fab, scenic finishes, graphics).
Systems mindset: ERP/MRP, scheduling tools, KPI dashboards; CI/Lean/5S experience.
Strong leadership, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
Why Join
Impact: Own the operating system of a high-craft, high-visibility shop.
Team: Experienced producers, PMs, and fabricators across disciplines.
Compensation: $250k base + bonus, with benefits.
Compensation Range: $250K
