Business Operations Coordinator

Mt. Mitchell Foods is looking for a smart, resourceful, and resilient person who can solve problems and keep up with a rapidly growing company.

This is not a quiet administrative position with a predictable daily routine. Priorities change quickly, expectations are high, and communication is direct. The right person will stay calm under pressure, accept candid feedback without taking it personally, and handle unexpected assignments without drama.

This role supports projects throughout the company as well as the daily needs of our leadership team. Responsibilities will range from coordinating meetings and travel to researching vendors, preparing reports, handling facility needs, running errands, and taking ownership of tasks that do not fit neatly into another department.

Responsibilities

Support company projects and members of the leadership team
Coordinate meetings, calendars, travel, appointments, and changing schedules
Track assignments and follow up to ensure commitments are completed
Research vendors, equipment, products, services, and business needs
Prepare emails, documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and reports
Coordinate with employees, customers, vendors, contractors, and professional advisors
Assist with purchasing, deliveries, reservations, facility needs, and errands
Gather information across departments and keep projects moving
Handle confidential business and personal information with discretion
Take ownership of urgent, unexpected, or loosely defined assignments
Assist with occasional personal tasks for members of leadership

What We Are Looking For

Strong common sense, judgment, and practical life skills
Emotionally steady and effective under pressure
Comfortable with strong personalities and direct feedback
Highly organized with excellent follow-through
Resourceful and able to figure things out independently
Able to manage multiple unrelated assignments at once
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Solid computer skills, including Microsoft Outlook, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint
Comfortable learning new software and AI-based productivity tools
Dependable, discreet, responsive, and willing to handle any reasonable task without ego

Three or more years of experience in business operations, executive support, office management, project coordination, hospitality, logistics, or another demanding environment is preferred. A specific degree is less important than maturity, resilience, and a demonstrated ability to get things done.

This position will not be a good fit for someone who needs every task clearly defined, becomes easily overwhelmed by changing priorities, avoids direct conversations, takes routine feedback personally, or requires constant reassurance.

Compensation and Benefits

Salary of $60,000 to $75,000, based on experience and demonstrated capabilities
Company-paid employee-only health insurance after 30 days
Spouse and dependent coverage available at the employee’s expense
Dental insurance available
401(k) with company matching after 30 days
Two weeks of paid vacation
Company-paid holidays
Company-paid Life Time Fitness membership

Schedule and Location

This is a full-time, primarily in-person position supporting Mt. Mitchell Foods’ Charlotte-area operations. Some travel between company facilities and occasional schedule flexibility will be required. Reliable transportation and a valid drivers license is required.
