The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Knight Frank is hiring a Operations Manager in Richmond, CA.

• Role description

  The general ground is shifting, and Knight Frank wants an Operations Manager in CA who sees Prioritization as the way through. Everything here scales with you — $127,000 - $203,000 at 6 years, general ownership soon after, and a Knight Frank ladder above.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Move general decisions forward when consensus stalls
  • Keep Knight Frank leadership honest with numbers they can act on
  • Stitch together Leadership and Attention Management into one coherent workflow
  • Monitor work quality and flag issues before they escalate
  • Close the loop on every Richmond request you touch
  • Notice the purpose-led gap between the spec and the shipped thing
  • Keep the hybrid schedule realistic when everyone wants everything yesterday

  What You'll Bring

  • A portfolio that speaks louder than any line on your resume
  • Confident communicator across email, calls, and in-person meetings
  • Familiarity with the Richmond market and local general landscape
  • The self-awareness to know which problems are yours to solve
  • 7+ years building trust the slow, unglamorous way

  Knight Frank began as a side project in Richmond and grew into the ruthlessly-focused platform thousands of general users now rely on. Psychological safety is something we actively build, so disagreeing in good faith is encouraged.

  Beyond the $127,000 - $203,000 base, Knight Frank invests in your growth through paid certifications, conferences, and dedicated learning time.
