This role owns the strategic and managerial layer that LaJoy Creative staff and consultants execute against day-to-day — setting production standards, managing the team, owning client and vendor relationships at the leadership level, and building the systems that let the firm scale. Beyond operations, this role is also expected to actively grow the firm's business — bringing established client and network relationships to the table and translating them into new revenue opportunities alongside the CEO. The Director translates the CEO's vision and business development wins into a functioning, well-run operation: staffing plans, budgets, quality standards, and growth-ready processes. This is a hands-on leadership role — the Director will still walk a site, sit in a client meeting, and jump into a crisis — but the primary mandate is building and running the machine, not executing
