The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Google is hiring a Operations Manager in Santa Clara, CA.

• Role description

  Joining Google as an Operations Manager means Santa Clara becomes your base and Cross-Functional Collaboration becomes your lever for $137,000 - $211,000-level impact. Honestly, the draw is the ownership: $137,000 - $211,000 and contract hours come standard, but the general reins are the real prize.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Prepare reports, summaries, and presentations for review by leadership
  • Own the follow-through after the general meeting ends
  • Own the boring middle of a project, not just the kickoff
  • Own one slice of Google's general mission end to end
  • Show up for the unglamorous general maintenance nobody volunteers for
  • Deliver impact-driven results that align with broader business objectives

  What You'll Bring

  • The composure to deliver bad news early and clearly
  • 8+ years of Organization reps, not just Organization exposure
  • At least 6 years building expertise within the general space
  • The instinct to ask "what would change your mind?" before debating

  Google was founded on a hunch that general could be far less awful, and Santa Clara turned out to be the perfect place to prove it. Respect for your craft and your life outside it sits at the core of how Google operates.

  We are offering $137,000 - $211,000, a clear growth track, hands-on mentorship, and the kind of flexibility that keeps CA talent happy.

  This role is being actively staffed, with offers expected before the quarter closes.

  Don't wait for the perfect moment to switch into general work, because it's right now.
