  1. Strategic Operations: Our internal consulting and transformation arm that serves as a rapid response team for critical operational challenges, provides strategic advisory to the COO, and drives critical cross-functional initiatives
  2. Process & Systems Excellence: Our technical execution engine that builds and optimizes how work gets done through process design, system optimization, and automation

Reporting to the VP of Business Operations, you'll lead two high impact teams with 8-10 team members and help shape how we scale and operate. You will work remotely, based in the United States.

  • Drive system integration and enhancement efforts
  • Standardize processes across regions and customer-supporting operational teams
  • Implement operational efficiency improvements

Build & Develop Teams

  • Create an environment where teams can effectively solve challenges and implement creative solutions rapidly
  • Drive cross-functional alignment and execution
  • Measure and communicate impact through tangible business outcomes
  • Develop future leaders across both strategic and technical disciplines

You Have:

  • 12+ years of progressive experience combining strategic consulting or internal strategy and technical / process optimization leadership
  • 7+ years of people management experience leading multiple specialized teams
  • Data-driven yet practical approach to decision-making and problem-solving
  • Demonstrated success driving complex operational initiatives from strategy through execution
  • Track record of building scalable processes and systems in high-growth environments
  • Strong technical foundation with enterprise systems implementation and management
