The hiring surge (54 roles posted in 30 days) is concentrated in operations and frontline roles, reflecting growth in on-site service delivery rather than back-office scaling. Active projects around contract lifecycle, kitchen efficiency, and inventory management indicate a company addressing operational friction points as it expands client relationships.
