Zum provides safe, reliable, technology-enabled student transportation for school districts. We are growing quickly: new districts, new yards, and new markets launch while existing ones are still being built out. The VP of Operations runs a multi-market in the east region P&L, leads general managers and their teams, and owns the operating rhythm that keeps buses running safely and on time. This is a hands-on, start-up-mode role for someone who can build, manage the process, and still step into a yard and roll up their sleeves when needed.
Daily: Route coverage, dispatch, on-time performance, driver safety messages, same-day escalations
Weekly: KPI release and action plans, labor review, customer launch calls, payroll dashboard review, AR collections
Monthly: Safety themes, union dues and benefits compliance, forecast-to-actual review, liquidated damages reconciliation
Seasonal: Back-to-school readiness, budget planning, renewals, 45-day scaling forecast
As needed: Involvement in bargaining, grievances, discipline, incident investigations, service-disruption planning
Launch new districts and yards while running existing ones, moving people and fleet across markets as needed
Write and standardize SOPs, RACIs, and protocols where none exist
Be decisive, often with incomplete information
Step in directly when a manager leaves or a launch stalls
Own the handoff from Sales through Day One and stabilization:
Handoff: Review contracts, pricing, and commitments with Sales, Legal, and Finance
Plan: Name an owner and build backward from first day of service
Staffing and training: Size teams including spares; lead recruiting, CDL training, and background checks
Labor and compliance: Determine CBA coverage and set up payroll and benefits
Customer readiness: Launch meetings, dry runs, and written scope changes
Stabilize: Provide go-live support, move to steady-state KPIs, and hold a post-launch review
Regional operations: Own on-time performance, coverage, and service quality
Financials: Own the regional P&L, budget, forecast accuracy, and expense control
Renewals and collections: Lead renewals and AR, including disputed invoices and liquidated damages
Escalations: Be the escalation point for district and union contract disputes, working with Legal and HR
HQ liaison: Connect field operations with Sales, Customer Success, Finance, HR, Legal, Safety, and Technology
People leadership: Lead and coach GMs and field managers, handle performance issues, and run promotion panels
Safety and compliance: Lead incident reviews, make documented discipline decisions, and oversee training and records
Labor relations: Support bargaining, grievances, arbitration, and CBA implementation
Customer relationships: Serve as senior operational contact for district leaders
Driver pipeline: Oversee hiring, spare ratios, CDL training, retention, and recognition
Fleet and technology: Evaluate routing vendors and support yard and equipment readiness
10+ years in operations, including 5+ leading multi-site or multi-region teams in student transportation, logistics, or similar safety-critical field operations
Experience in high-growth or turnaround settings, launching sites and building process from scratch
Strong financial skills: budgeting, forecasting, expense control, and AR management
Direct union experience (CBA administration, grievances, discipline, bargaining) and skill in renewals and escalations with districts and unions
Command of DOT/FMCSA, CDL, and state pupil-transportation requirements
Public-sector contract experience, including SLAs and liquidated damages
Fluency with operational and workforce data, turned into weekly action
Strong multitasking and proactive planning; exceptional written and verbal communication
Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience

Start with a role or skill you want to use in your next job. Use the location and role filters to narrow the results, then open a listing to review the description. A title alone rarely explains the level of responsibility, working arrangement, or experience a team needs. Compare those details before deciding which opportunities deserve a tailored application.
Employers use different titles for similar work. If an exact phrase produces no results, try a shorter title, a core skill, or an alternative name for the role. Remove one filter at a time to understand which requirement is narrowing your search. A broader search can reveal suitable work without asking you to change your actual qualifications.
For each promising listing, read the responsibilities and separate essential requirements from preferences. Note the location, schedule, employment type, and compensation when provided. Missing details are questions to confirm with the employer. A remote opening may still require a particular country, work authorization, or time-zone overlap, so check the full posting before treating it as a location-independent opportunity.
Choose a few examples that demonstrate the skills this employer names. Explain your contribution and its outcome, using accurate numbers where available. Put the most relevant experience first and keep your resume easy to scan. Avoid adding technologies, qualifications, or achievements simply because they appear in a description. Your application should make your existing strengths easier to understand.
Follow the employer’s instructions for resumes, cover letters, work samples, and screening questions. Review the exported file before submitting it: confirm that contact details are correct, text can be selected, and links reach the intended pages. A resume check can help you spot unclear writing before you apply. Its feedback is advisory and does not predict a hiring decision.
Listings are collected from external sources and may change after they appear here. The employer or recruiting destination controls whether applications are open. If an original link is unavailable, check the company’s careers page for the title or move to another opening. An employer website link is a place to check current vacancies, rather than confirmation that a particular job is still accepting applications.
Keep a simple record of the company, role, job reference, application date, and documents you sent. Record any follow-up instructions and the next action you plan to take. This makes it easier to prepare for interviews, compare opportunities, and avoid applying repeatedly to the same opening through different boards. Review your shortlist as employers update their listings and prioritize opportunities with clear requirements that match the work you want to do.
