Assistant Manager

Join Parachute is building a better way to donate plasma — one that’s fast, friendly, and powered by smart technology. Our donor app makes booking and earning easy, and our team makes every visit feel welcoming and personal. We’ve grown from 2 to 30+ locations in under 3 years, and we’re just getting started. If you want to grow your career with a high‑energy team, this is a great opportunity.

What

You’ll Do

As the Assistant Manager, you’ll be a key partner to the Center Director and a visible leader on the donor floor, taking ownership of key parts of daily operations while ensuring a safe and welcoming experience. You will be a key part of the culture, jumping in wherever necessary and creating a positive environment for the team and our donors. You will have a unique opportunity to be part of a high‑growth organization, one that is changing rapidly and creating new opportunities for our high‑performing team members.

Key Responsibilities
  • Own day‑to‑day operations by jumping in on the donor floor, keeping things moving, and ensuring smooth donor flow and retention.
  • Partner on strategy with the Center Director to plan and execute goals around operations, donor experience, and compliance.
  • Lead by example and coach team members in real time.
  • Monitor quality, safety, and regulatory standards, supporting audits and inspections.
  • Manage and maintain inventory, equipment, and supplies.
  • Recruit and develop exceptional team members and foster a culture of growth and accountability.
  • Communicate and align expectations through regular team syncs, share updates, and keep everyone focused on the day’s priorities.
Required Qualifications
  • High school diploma, GED equivalent, or higher education.
  • 2+ years of supervisory or leadership experience.
  • Ability to lift 50 lbs., sit or stand for extended periods, and enter cold environments (‑40°C) for short periods.
  • Ability to work both day and evening hours, weekends, holidays, extended shifts as needed.
Who You Are
  • A Reliable Problem Solver – You take ownership, get in the weeds, prioritize creatively, and are outcomes‑oriented.
  • An Empathetic Communicator – You adapt your communication style to meet different audiences, resolve conflicts, stay calm under pressure, and motivate others.
  • A Data‑Driven Decision Maker – You are metrics driven, logically reason, and ignore one‑offs or edge cases.
  • Development‑Minded – You are self‑aware, curious, honest, and have a track record of steep learning curves.
Who You Are Not
  • Someone who isn’t excited to get their hands dirty – we need people willing to jump in where needed.
  • Someone who doesn’t thrive in an environment of continuous change – we’re in a hyper‑growth stage and need people excited to ride the roller coaster.
  • Someone who wants to clock in and clock out – we need team players who care about impact and often put in extra hours.
Why Join Parachute
  • Competitive pay + monthly bonus potential.
  • Significant career growth opportunities in a fast‑scaling environment.
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance.
  • Paid time off and company holidays.
Compensation
