Trunk Space Storage aspires to build one of the most innovative operating models in the self‑storage industry as we enter a rapid scaling phase. The Remote Operations Center is vital to that approach. The Director of Remote Operations Center will oversee Trunk Space Storage’s Remote Operations Center (the ROC) and play a pivotal role in shaping how we serve and retain our customers.

Attracting and retaining the best talent is vital to our success. We empower employees to make their own decisions, set compensation and benefits at the upper end of the self‑storage industry, foster a positive and “can‑do” culture, and provide strong growth opportunities—including promoting from within.

You are a critical part of the company’s success. We view talent such as yourself as a top strategic priority and want to hear from you on how we can make both you and the company succeed. We strive to make every day better than the previous one. As a start‑up, we look for individuals who embrace the start‑up dynamic, recognizing both the opportunities for greater responsibility and the learning experiences that come from mistakes.

The Director of Remote Operations Center leads all customer‑facing remote operations across Trunk Space Storage. This includes managing an in‑office team of Remote Managers, overseeing our offshore call center partner, and ensuring our AI‑assisted customer interaction tools deliver exceptional customer experience and leasing results. This is not a traditional cost‑control call center role. While operational efficiency matters, the top priority is customer retention, exceptional service, conversion performance, and acting as the “virtual store” when locations are unstaffed (typically two days per week per store).

The ROC is designed to be a revenue and relationship engine—one of our most important strategic assets.
