Chief Operating Officer

While the CEO focuses on growth, capital, strategy and partnerships, the COO turns ambition into predictable execution. You own delivery.

weVLC is a Valencia-first real estate investment, transformation and flex-living platform with a full-cycle model across acquisition, renovation, furnishing, rental and day-to-day management.

150+ units under management | €30M+ completed investments | Path toward €100M+ | Full-cycle model | Valencia-first | Premium living brand

The company has built a profitable entrepreneurial foundation and is now entering its next phase: growing project volume, professionalising operations, strengthening reporting and building the systems that allow weVLC to scale without losing quality, speed or culture.

This is not about becoming a generic real estate operator. weVLC combines capital, transformation, hospitality, technology and community into one machine, with Valencia as the place to win first, completely.

The Role: Chief Operating Officer As COO, you turn ambition into predictable execution. This is a full-stack operating role across project delivery, renovation execution, financial control, compliance, investor success, tenant experience and team performance. You work on the organisation as much as in the organisation: building structure, installing rhythm, clarifying ownership and making sure the company scales through systems, not chaos. You will have the mandate to professionalise the operating model, build and lead the team, and make execution decisions across projects, operations and reporting. This is a senior leadership role with direct exposure to the CEO, board and international investors.

You will be accountable for:

End-to-end operational execution across the weVLC platform

Project delivery of property acquisitions, renovations and transformations

Timeline reliability, budget discipline and quality control

Operational P&L performance and project-level financial control

Building, leading and professionalising the operational team

Supplier, contractor and stakeholder coordination

Compliance, liability and operational risk management

Investor success, structured reporting and communication rhythm

Tenant experience, community operations and service quality

Scalable processes, dashboards, systems and accountability structures

Success in this role means projects are delivered on time, on budget and to weVLC quality standards; teams know who owns what; project margins and operational performance are transparent; investors receive clear and reliable reporting; and residents experience weVLC as premium, responsive and connected.

Your first 12 months In your first year, your focus will be to professionalise the operating machine behind weVLC’s next phase of growth. This means strengthening project, financial, risk and compliance control; building accountability across the team; improving investor reporting; and ensuring that project delivery, tenant experience and community operations scale to weVLC standards and local regulatory requirements. The business should become more predictable, more transparent, more compliant and easier to scale, without losing the entrepreneurial speed and ownership that made weVLC successful.

The candidate we are looking for We are looking for a senior operator who wants real ownership. Someone who is motivated by complexity, structure and building a company that can scale. You may already operate at COO level, or you may be a strong Head of Operations, Operations Director, General Manager, Chief of Staff or platform leader ready to step into full operational responsibility. You bring the maturity to lead, the discipline to structure and the energy to operate in a fast-moving entrepreneurial environment.
