Job Description

Tired of corporate politics and red tape?

Ready to lead a team, build internal systems from the ground up, and scale a business that lives its values?

This is your chance to get in early at a fast-growing, high-trust company where your work has visible impact. Lambrecht Auction, Inc. is a 3rd-generation family business (founded in 1958) undergoing a transformation from a medium-size business to enterprise. We are a multi-channel sales organization transforming how building materials and consumer products are bought and sold—primarily through high-volume online auctions serving contractors and consumers across the East Coast. We’re seeking a leader to architect and strengthen the internal systems, teams, and processes that will support our next phase of strategic growth.

Why This Role Matters

  • Lead and grow cross-functional support teams—including Accounting/Financial Reporting, Hiring/HR, Asset Management, Team Building, and Special Projects—while working closely with Data, Marketing, and Inventory Warehouse teams to ensure seamless operational alignment across the organization.
  • Own internal systems and business process optimization
  • Work directly with ownership and division leaders to shape strategic execution
  • Create sustainable structure to support rapid expansion (100+ auctions/year)

The Opportunity

As our  Senior Manager, Business Systems & Financial Operations , you’ll lead the systems, people, and internal processes that keep the company running at peak performance. You’ll manage day-to-day execution across our Support Division while driving company-wide adoption of technology, reporting tools, and process improvements.

This is not a “keep the lights on” ops role. You’ll be building the foundation that allows us to scale—with the autonomy, urgency, and leadership access that rarely come with corporate titles.

  • Experience implementing or managing business systems
