Member of the Month: Jess Trinca

Hello! I am a recent Philadelphia transplant. I moved out from California in March 2022 with a desire for a new life adventure on the East Coast, proximity to family, reduced time difference with my EU clients, and the freedom to work remotely. Thank you to all who have extended such warm welcomes already! 

I founded my own business operations consultancy in 2018. Jess Trinca Consulting was born out of my passion for identifying challenges and inefficacies that prevent productive business growth. After more than a decade of progressing through various verticals of the entertainment industry (advertising, content marketing, digital gaming, and digital agency services) and working with a few startups, I claimed my strength as a business operations leader. No matter the company, or the industry, operations are the bedrock of any organization. Sound operations prove a company’s commitment to its people, its culture, working smarter (not harder), and of course continuously strengthening its bottom line.    

Jess Trinca Consulting provides strategic thinking and operational design to early-stage start-ups to support the growth of their business and empower management teams to realize and achieve their goals.  

Specializing in high-growth, vision-backed start-ups, I immerse myself in my clients’ businesses. I identify urgent needs and blockers to help my clients’ organizations calmly and confidently move forward with the support, foresight, and operational thinking that teams need to grow.  

I customize a suite of services to meet each client where their business is at. Services range from operations development & implementation, new corporation formation, M&A due diligence coordination, cross-functional workflows design & implementation, to leadership advisement & mentorship, and more.  

As an advisor, I serve as a thought partner, sounding board, and accountability coach to ensure each client reaches their highest potential in the workplace. In the early days of service, I am not afraid to roll up my sleeves and do the work alongside Founders and their teams. When we’ve achieved designated goals, I turn my focus to equipping, training, coaching, and empowering the newly formed leadership and director-level teams to continue forward.  

I am looking forward to expanding my services here in Philadelphia, supporting the startup community and larger organizations alike.

More about Jess:

What are you reading right now (or what is a go-to book you would recommend to others)? The Hard Thing About Hard Things by Ben Horowitz is one of my go-tos.

What was your first job?
My first job out of college was working on The Simpsons, as the Executive Assistant to the show’s Publicist. The first episode I worked on was Episode 401 He Loves to Fly and He D'ohs, with special guest Lionel Richie.

It’s Sunday at 10 AM. Where are you?
Any one of these three - at OCF Café on Fairmount, running along the Schuylkill, or having breakfast with my nieces on the Main Line.

What would people be surprised to learn about you?
I have run 16 marathons to date, with sights set on more!

What is the first place you’d recommend to someone that’s never been to our city?
Having only called Philadelphia home for less than one year, I too am taking recommendations! That said, the Mural Arts walk, the Schuylkill River Path, the Barnes Museum, and Suraya restaurant…these are a few of my favorite things - so far.
