What are the responsibilities and job description for the Operations Assistant position at High Class Tackle Co.?
Welcome to High Class Tackle Company! We’re a new outdoor lifestyle start-up based in the Portland area that specializes in custom & unique fishing tackle (lures, blades, spinners, beads, soft plastics, etc.)
We’re looking to bring on our 1st Operations employee that has the ability to wear multiple hats as we continue to scale into the future. This is a killer opportunity to do what you love and to get in at the ground floor at a new local company.
The owners come from successful national CPG brands and have brought years of experience with manufacturing, wholesale, distribution & sales/marketing. The core business has been established leaving an opportunity for the right candidate to come in and run day-to-day operations.
The overall goal of this position is really to help build the company from the ground up with us. Hire new roles as they become needed, build out new department structure, internally level up while doing so. Multiple hats, unique projects, new skills to learn, old skills to use again.
