About Devin Cundall

I am an operating executive with 20+ years of experience helping organizations navigate growth, transition, and operational complexity. I have served as a General Manager, COO, CIO, and Chief of Staff–style leader, operating at the intersection of strategy and execution across hospitality, entertainment, services, and technology-enabled businesses.I specialize in translating vision into execution—partnering with CEOs, boards, and ownership teams to align people, processes, and priorities, and build the systems required to scale. My work centers on driving operational clarity, accountability, and performance in environments where execution matters and decisions carry real consequences.Throughout my career, I have led full P&L operations, launched new ventures and revenue streams, scaled teams, and built operating frameworks that support sustainable growth and margin discipline. I bring an ownership mindset to every role, with a strong focus on cash flow, long-term value creation, and organizational health.I have operated in both founder-led and institutionally backed environments, often stepping into situations that require alignment, structure, and forward momentum. I am a hands-on, servant-minded leader who works closely with teams at every level—connecting leadership decisions to real-world execution.My experience spans both for-profit and mission-driven organizations, and I am particularly motivated by opportunities where strong operations and leadership can amplify long-term impact.I am most drawn to roles where I can help build something durable—whether as a CEO, a COO / Integrator, or a strategic operating partner to leadership—particularly in organizations navigating growth, complexity, or change.
