Operations Support & Virtual COO Services
When You’re Carrying the Weight of a Scaling Business, We’re the Team That Carries It With You.
This isn’t just advice. It’s hands-on, strategic operations support from a team who gets what it’s like to grow fast, lead a team and be the only one holding it all together.
We embed into your business virtually, providing structure, stability and serious backup so you can scale without the stress.
Scaling Fast? Feeling Stretched Thin?
- You’re still in the day-to-day, but you know you shouldn’t be
- Your team’s growing, but no one’s at your level to guide them
- Systems? Processes? They’re duct-taped together
- You want to take a break... but your business would fall apart
- You’re on the brink of burnout and it’s not sustainable
Whether you’re growing rapidly or navigating a big life change, our virtual COO and Operator Support options give you the people, processes and practical help to stay on track.
Enter Our Operations Support & Virtual COO Team
Two Levels. One Goal: Build a Business That Doesn’t Rely on You for Everything.
1. Operator Support
For business owners still in the thick of it. You’re managing your people, projects and priorities but you need someone reliable in your corner to tighten up ops, remove the bottlenecks and give you a smarter way to lead.
2. COO Intensive
For those ready to step back and install high-level support. You get a true second-in-command who brings project management skill, people strategy and operational oversight. We’ll make strategic decisions (within your parameters) so you can lead, not micromanage.
What’s Included:
- Deep onboarding and business immersion
- A tailored ops support plan based on your business needs
- Fortnightly progress meetings
- Asynchronous support via Slack
- Dedicated Asana project board
- Structured delivery phases using our unique operations formula to keep your goals on track
- Project planning, delivery systems, team support
- Outcome-focused delivery - no clock-watching or capped hours
What You’ll Walk Away With

Relief. Resilience. Room to Lead.
- An embedded ops partner who knows your business
- Projects running without you having to chase
- Team supported, systems flowing, bottlenecks gone
- A business that thrives even when you take a break
- Strategic decisions made for you so you can focus on the big picture
Is This You?
You don’t need convincing you need a capable team you can trust.
- Business owners with growing teams but no senior support
- Founders scaling past their own experience or bandwidth
- Leaders anticipating big personal milestone or transitions (e.g. baby, health treatments, time away)
- You want operational support that’s consistent, strategic and affordable
- Entrepreneurs who’ve inherited or bought a business and want to get it right
- Anyone who hasn’t had a holiday without their laptop in years

What Past Clients Are Saying

Whitney and her team have been pivotal to our growth. As a small business owner, resource management is key. Lava’s flexible support has helped us scale up and down based on workflow. Couldn’t recommend them enough.
Still Got Questions?

How many hours per week is this?
What’s the minimum commitment?
What if it’s not a good fit?
There’s a 30-day cooling-off period. If it’s not working for either of us, we’ll walk away (no hard feelings).
