We’re looking for a Business Operations Associate who operates at both the 5,000-foot and 5-foot levels—a strategic thinker and hands-on operator driving solutions from idea to execution. Reporting directly to the Head of Business Operations, the role serves as connective tissue across Sales, Customer Success, Partnerships, Marketing, Finance, Data, and Product. Highly dynamic and cross-functional, the position involves analyzing data to inform decisions, building programs and processes, and executing initiatives that drive optimization and scale. It offers exposure to multiple business functions and the opportunity to shape workflows and influence company-wide priorities.

Monitor business performance, analyze KPIs, and run deep dives to uncover root causes and opportunities.
Translate data into clear insights, recommendations, and action plans.
Improve coordination by clarifying ownership, strengthening handoffs, and tightening communication flows.
Serve as a trusted operator who can jump in wherever needed to ensure execution stays on track.
Qualifications
2–5+ years in Business Operations, Strategy & Operations, Consulting, or a similar analytical/operational role.
Strong problem-solver with comfort navigating ambiguity and shifting priorities.

Highly organized, detail-oriented, and proactive—able to manage multiple workstreams simultaneously.
Thrives in a fast-paced, high-growth, scrappy environment.
