Overview
Senior Director of Operations Jobs in Omaha, NE at Jewish Community Center
Full Job Description
Do you want to help make our JCC the most organized, welcoming, well-run community hub in town?
At the JCC, we do a little bit of everything—preschool in the morning, pickleball in the afternoon, basketball in the gym, and dance classes in the evenings. We’re a hub of activity, connection, and joy—and we’re looking for a Senior Director of Operations to help keep it all running smoothly (without losing their cool or their coffee).
This is a second-in-command leadership role for someone who knows how to turn chaos into calm, who thrives on to-do lists and team huddles, and who doesn’t flinch when asked where the tables are stored (again). You’ll be the go-to for making things happen—from building logistics to program support—so our staff and members can focus on what they do best: building community.
What You’ll Be Doing:
Make the JCC hum. Oversee all the operational behind-the-scenes magic.
Be the right hand to the Executive Director—keeping the big picture in mind while managing the nitty-gritty.
Collaborate with program directors to make sure events, classes, and camp all have what they need—on time, on budget, and with plenty of folding chairs.
Bring order to the universe. Or at least to our calendar, inventory, and vendor list.
You Might Be Our Person If You:
Have at least 10 years of experience in operations—bonus points if it’s in a nonprofit or community-based setting.
Are equal parts planner, fixer, and people-person.
Can lead a team, manage a budget, negotiate with vendors, and find that one missing tablecloth—all before lunch.
Love checklists, spreadsheets, and making things run better than before.
Don’t need to manage IT or security—but you know who to call if the Wi-Fi crashes.
Have a soft spot for community spaces and the joyful chaos of a JCC.
Perks:
A workplace with purpose—you’ll see the impact of your work every day.
Amazing coworkers who value collaboration, respect, and a good snack drawer.
Access to JCC programs and fitness facilities, because balance matters.
Competitive salary and benefits to support you while you support us.
