I’m Hiring: Launch & Operations Lead (3–6 Month Contract)
Manchester / Hybrid
Immediate Start
I’m looking for a senior, hands-on operator to work directly with me to build the operational engine behind the launch of my beauty brand.
This is not a strategy-only role. This is for someone who rolls their sleeves up, builds from the ground up, and drives execution daily.
We are in startup mode. That means ambiguity, pace, and ownership. You’ll bring structure where there isn’t any yet — and make sure things actually get done.
What You’ll Be Doing
Build a 90-day execution roadmap from scratch — and run it day to day
Translate vision into clear weekly deliverables across product, marketing, supply chain and launch
Set up KPI dashboards and reporting rhythms that drive commercial decisions
Create operational processes where none exist (from planning to performance tracking)
Hold team members and external partners accountable to deadlines and standards
Identify gaps, solve bottlenecks, and keep momentum high
Support hiring key roles and help define accountability structures
Bring commercial focus to every decision — ensuring we launch on time and ready to scale
What I’m Looking For:
Proven experience launching a DTC / beauty / consumer brand
Strong operator mindset — you execute, not just advise
Comfortable building processes from zero
Confident leading in a founder-led environment
High standards, high ownership, and bias toward action
Not afraid to get into the detail and solve problems hands-on
This is a short-term, high-impact contract role with real ownership. The right person will leave behind a fully functioning operational foundation and a launch-ready business.
Accepting applications for a fixed term contract or day rate applicants.
