Message From the Owner
Hello
Thank you for taking the time to review the Assistant Operations Manager position at Christensen Recycling.
I want to share a bit of context about who we are and what were looking for because this is not a typical job and we are not a typical company.
Christensen Recycling is a fast-growing owner-led operation running 1015 trucks per day across New Jersey and surrounding states. Because we are not a large corporate bureaucracy leadership here is hands-on visible and directly involved in daily operations. The right person in this role will have real responsibility real influence and a direct path to long-term growth.
Reliability and commitment matter greatly to us.
This is an early-morning operations role. Our business starts early and consistency is critical. We are looking for someone who takes pride in being dependable prepared and present especially when others are still asleep. If you are someone who values discipline structure and accountability you will thrive here.
Our culture is simple and demanding in the right way:
We work extremely hard Monday through Friday
We operate with urgency structure and professionalism
And we protect family time on nights and weekends
This role typically starts at 6:00 AM and finishes between 4:005:00 PM Monday through Friday only.
I built this company over the past 25 years growing it from a single pickup truck generating $50000 per year into a business now exceeding $10 million in annual revenue. I am now focused on building the next generation of leadership inside the company.
This role is designed to grow into an Operations Manager position for the right person.
Primary responsibilities include:
Answering inbound calls and dispatching jobs to active routes when trucks are already in the area
Scheduling future pickups and building routes efficiently
Working the scale and coordinating yard flow
Ensuring all drivers and buyers leave early prepared and organized each morning
Making sure all routes are fully built and uploaded the day prior so mornings run smoothly without scrambling
This position starts at $1200 per week with quarterly performance bonuses based on results.
More importantly it offers something far more valuable than a paycheck alone:
The opportunity to grow into senior leadership inside a company that is still expanding.
If you are motivated by responsibility growth and being part of a disciplined high-performing operation I would welcome the opportunity to speak with you.
I look forward to learning more about you.
