Contáctica is the leading Martech Creative Agency in Puerto Rico, a strong challenger in Latin America, and a dynamic catalyst for growth in the U.S. mainland. For over 20 years we have challenged the status quo and accelerated the evolution of visionary companies and their teams by delivering pioneering knowledge, transformative Martech Solutions, and full-spectrum Marketing Agency Services.
With headquarters in Puerto Rico and Colombia, and a closely integrated team working from across ten countries, we are uniquely positioned to serve key industries such as Banking, Insurance, and Consumer Packaged Goods (CPGs), tackling the most complex brand, product, and business challenges of today and tomorrow.
In 2025, as we enter a new era of Hyper-Evolution, we are passionately committed to drive growth and innovation by leveraging the Power of Humanity + Artificial Intelligence, maintaining our unwavering commitment to exceptional business outcomes through Strategic Thinking, Creativity, Deep Client Insight, and Cutting-Edge Technologies.
If you're driven by the same convictions—and eager to take them further—we invite you to review this role and consider joining us.
JOB DESCRIPTION
We are looking for a seasoned, high-impact Operations Director to design, strengthen, and scale the operating model of Contáctica . This is not only an execution role, but a business leadership role at the center of how the company grows, delivers, and performs. As a close partner to the CEO, the Operations Director will help translate strategy into action while also serving as a trusted advisor on operational health, business performance, structural gaps, and scaling priorities.
This leader will oversee the design, improvement, and governance of the company’s operational frameworks, ensuring they are efficient, scalable, and aligned with both business objectives and client expectations. We are looking for someone who brings exposure to multiple operating models and best practices, ideally from Martech, technology, SaaS, consulting, or other high-growth service environments—not only traditional marketing agencies. This person should be able to identify what the business needs, adapt proven frameworks intelligently, and build the right structure for Contáctica ’s stage of growth.
A core part of the role is leading the day-to-day operational engine of the business: managing capacity, balancing workloads, improving resource allocation, monitoring delivery risks, strengthening accountability, and enabling consistent, high-quality execution across teams. You will work cross-functionally with Sales, Client Services, Creative, Media, Strategy, Technology, and Finance to ensure the company operates with greater clarity, speed, discipline, and alignment.
This role also requires strong business and financial acumen. The Operations Director must be able to analyze numbers rigorously, question assumptions constructively, identify patterns and inefficiencies, and turn operational and financial data into better decisions. You will help strengthen visibility across performance, profitability, utilization, forecasting, and delivery performance, while giving the CEO and leadership team sharper insight into how the business is really operating.
Additionally, you will help connect operations to growth by understanding how sales, client needs, solution design, delivery feasibility, technology enablement, and financial performance interact. You should be comfortable acting as a thought partner in decisions that affect not only internal efficiency, but also scalability, client experience, and long-term business health.
Ultimately, this role requires a leader who thrives in complexity, combines strategic thinking with execution discipline, and can build the operational backbone Contáctica needs to scale intelligently and sustainably. The ideal candidate is not just a strong operator, but a broad business thinker who can challenge, advise, and help shape the next stage of the company’s growth.
