Business Manager

Location: Salt Lake City, Utah

About the Company: We are the world’s premier provider of deep-field expeditions and extreme-environment travel experiences — delivering safe, sustainable, and awe-inspiring journeys to the most remote places on Earth. With year-round operations anchored in Salt Lake City and field support hubs across the globe, we serve Governments, explorers, researchers, and high-net-worth adventurers who seek to go beyond ordinary limits.

Our team is driven by courage, innovation, and a relentless respect for the planet. Every challenge is an opportunity to pioneer new ground, and every expedition is guided by precision, purpose, and passion.

About the Role: This isn’t a desk-bound leadership job. It’s a rare opportunity to shape the strategy and structure of a company that operates on the edge of the world — literally and figuratively. As Business Manager, you’ll be the connective force between vision and execution: translating ambition into systems, strategy into growth, and adventure into sustainable success.

You’ll oversee operations, finance, and organizational design with both creativity and discipline. You’ll bring order without dampening the spirit of exploration, and you’ll provide the clarity, structure, and foresight that allow a bold, independent enterprise to thrive.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Strategic Leadership: Design and implement business frameworks that enable scalability, resilience, and long-term profitability.
  • Operational Command: Oversee core business functions — finance, accounting, marketing, and sales — ensuring seamless integration and alignment with company objectives.
  • Financial Mastery: Build and manage robust financial systems, forecasting, and reporting that empower smart decision-making and growth.
  • Performance & Culture: Drive accountability and cross-departmental collaboration through transparent communication and empowered leadership.
  • Risk Management: Identify vulnerabilities, anticipate challenges, and safeguard the company’s financial, operational, and legal interests.
  • Brand Elevation: Strengthen the company’s position as the global leader in elite adventure and expedition experiences.
  • Partnership & Diplomacy: Work directly with founding partners to translate their vision into action while maintaining trust and alignment

What You Bring:

  • A rare blend of structure and spontaneity — you thrive on clarity but embrace the unpredictable.
  • Proven success leading business operations, finance, or strategy in a high-growth or high-risk environment.
  • Sharp analytical and organizational skills balanced with creativity and adaptability.
  • Strong emotional intelligence — able to navigate personalities, build trust, and unite diverse stakeholders around a common purpose.
  • Experience in adventure travel, exploration, or luxury tourism is a plus, but a spirit of discovery is essential.
  • Advanced proficiency in financial tools, systems, and technology

Why This Role

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to lead one of the world’s most distinctive experiential companies — one that operates at the intersection of adventure, science, and sustainability. You’ll join a small, elite leadership team of visionaries who don’t just manage risk — they redefine what’s possible.

If you’re ready to guide an organization built by explorers and powered by purpose, we’d love to meet you.
