Operations Associate

Operations
Cincinnati, OH, USA
USD 45k-60k / year
Posted on Oct 24, 2025
At Gearsupply, we’re reshaping how the live-event industry buys and sells professional gear. From massive line arrays to cutting-edge LED walls, we handle the equipment behind unforgettable shows. As a fast-growing startup, we value creativity, hustle, and resourcefulness. We’re looking for someone who’s ready to roll up their sleeves and make an impact.
We are seeking a dynamic, detail-oriented Operations Associate who will work closely with the Director of Operations across a variety of tasks that keep the company running smoothly. This is a hybrid role: you’ll spend roughly 30% of your time on in-company IT responsibilities, and the remaining ~70% assisting the Director of Operations with key projects. It’s a unique opportunity to be part of a forward-thinking company and contribute meaningfully to our growth.
