Open to remote operations and chief of staff roles

Christian JohnD. Magtoto

Operations Manager & Chief of Staff

I run day-to-day operations for 21 laundromats and a restaurant-bar in the US, fully remote from the Philippines. I turn an owner's priorities into tracked action, lead distributed teams, and deliver reporting that's ready for decisions.

About me

Ownership, follow-through, and clear communication

I'm an Operations Manager and Chief of Staff with more than five years of experience leading remote teams and coordinating multi-site businesses. Today I oversee staffing, vendors, inventory, maintenance, and reporting for a 21-location laundromat group and a restaurant-bar in the US.

My background spans IT, social media, and administration, so I can move comfortably between people, systems, and marketing. Owners rely on me to keep things moving without needing to chase them.

Current operations

Twenty-two sites, one point of contact

For a US-based laundromat group, I keep locations across New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania running, along with a restaurant-bar, all from a fully remote seat.

Priorities into action

High-level direction becomes tracked tasks, delegated work, and fast escalations.

People and hiring

Full-cycle screening, onboarding, and supervising a team of virtual assistants.

Visibility for the owner

Executive briefings, CCTV oversight, and MaintainX follow-ups keep risks in view.

My operating rhythmEvery day, every site
  1. 1

    Capture priorities

    Turn the owner's goals and today's issues into a clear, ranked list.

  2. 2

    Assign and delegate

    Match each task to the right person: store teams, assistants, technicians, or vendors.

  3. 3

    Track and follow up

    Monitor progress in tools like MaintainX and check in until it's closed.

  4. 4

    Report and escalate

    Send decision-ready updates and flag urgent risks before they cause delays.
