About The Role

The House of Stake (HoS) is the decentralized, token-based governance body within the NEAR ecosystem, operating at the intersection of governance, legal structure, funding flows, and stakeholder coordination.

As HoS evolves in scope and operational complexity, we need a dedicated Operations Manager, hired by the House of Stake Foundation, to establish independent operations capacities, and ensure structural rigor, documentation integrity, payment execution reliability, and full operational visibility across initiatives.

This is not a generic ops role, it is governance-critical infrastructure.

What’ll You’ll Do

Currently, operational responsibilities (documentation, payment tracking, contract coordination, reporting) are distributed across leadership.

To scale responsibly and reduce operational risk, we need a single owner who:

Ensures all documentation and contracts are complete and accessible

Executes and tracks payments reliably

Maintains operational oversight across HoS initiatives

Creates structured, audit-ready systems

Enables Governance leadership to focus on strategy rather than administration

The HoS Operations Manager will be responsible for:

Operational integrity, documentation completeness, payment execution, and governance process reliability.

They will act as the connective tissue between:

HoS Foundation

HoS Governance, and Head of Governance

NEAR Foundation Legal

NEAR Foundation Finance

D. Process Design & Systems

Highly structured and process-driven
