Job Description

WANTED: A High-Impact Operations Manager Ready to Be the Backbone of One of San Diego's Elite Criminal Defense Firms

Are you the kind of person who thrives on organization, leadership, and driving results behind the scenes? Do you take pride in running a tight ship, where every process clicks, every team member performs at their peak, and every client gets white-glove treatment?

If so, read on—this might be the opportunity you've been waiting for.

The Law Offices of Anna R. Yum isn’t your typical law firm. We’re one of San Diego’s premier criminal defense firms, led by nationally recognized trial attorney Anna Yum. We handle high-stakes, high-profile cases, and our courtroom victories are matched only by our dedication to excellence in every facet of our operation.

We’re looking for a proven Operations Manager who can take charge of the business engine that powers our legal victories. This isn’t a support role—this is mission-critical leadership.

What You’ll Own:

  • Total Firm Operations: From intake to client satisfaction, from staff structure to tech systems.
  • Team Performance: Mentor, motivate, and manage our non-attorney staff like a pro.
  • Culture Keeper: Maintain and build the firm’s high-performance, accountability-driven environment.
  • Process Guru: Develop SOPs, streamline workflows, eliminate bottlenecks.
  • Tech & Tools: Oversee and optimize tools like Practice Panther, LawPay, and Lawmatics.
  • HR Excellence: Be a trusted HR partner, from hiring to evaluations to compliance.
  • Client Experience: Ensure smooth onboarding and fast conflict resolution with class and care.

What You Bring:

  • 3+ years of experience in operations management (legal industry a big plus)
  • A bachelor’s degree (bonus points for business, legal, or management focus)
  • Leadership chops, killer organizational skills, and a client-first mindset
  • Calm under pressure, solutions-focused, and driven to improve everything you touch

What You Get:

  • A front-row seat in a fast-growing, high-stakes law firm
  • Competitive salary + benefits (medical, dental, vision, PTO, 401(k))
  • Daily opportunities for professional development
  • A tight-knit, high-performing team that respects your time and talent
  • The chance to truly make a difference for people facing the most difficult moments of their lives

This Role Isn’t For:

  • Clock-watchers or paper-pushers
  • People who wait to be told what to do
  • Anyone who can’t thrive in a fast-paced, no-excuses culture

If You're Still Reading...

That’s a good sign. Now it's time to take the next step.

As a closing sentence, please write, “I have read the instructions contained in the job posting and have followed the instructions.”

Do not send your resume through this online application service. Create an email and send us your resume and cover letter in PDF format to assistant at annayumlaw.com. The subject line of the email should be your last name (all caps), followed by a hyphen and the word “operations,” followed by one word that you would use to describe yourself (lower case) [For example: SMITH-operations-energetic].
