About Jared Hager

As someone who thrives on bringing chaos to order, I’ve spent nearly two decades honing my skills as an operations manager and executive assistant. My journey has taken me through various fast-paced environments where I\'ve had the privilege of supporting C-suite executives at notable companies like NielsenIQ and Revolution Cannabis. Each role has been a unique adventure—whether it was managing complex calendars for multiple leaders or orchestrating travel logistics that would make even a seasoned traveler raise an eyebrow.One of my proudest moments was onboarding during the Covid-19 pandemic to assist two Fortune 500 executives. It was a challenging time for everyone, but I embraced the opportunity to streamline their professional and personal lives amidst uncertainty. I successfully managed internal budgets while ensuring that every detail was accounted for—no small feat when juggling high-level responsibilities!In my previous role at ZED451, I played a key part in change management by coordinating sales and operations teams to execute Banquet Event Orders seamlessly. This experience taught me how crucial communication is within an organization; it’s not just about getting things done but ensuring everyone is on the same page.I also spent over seven years as a Logistics Manager at LK Technologies Inc, where I implemented new operational strategies across four subsidiaries’ shipping departments. This role allowed me to develop infrastructure that supported aggressive growth plans while fostering collaboration among teams.Outside of work, I enjoy exploring new places—traveling has always been a passion of mine—and I believe it enhances my ability to manage logistics effectively.
