Job Description

• Own and run business operations workstreams that are currently slowing execution or requiring frequent SVP involvement. • Turn priorities into clear next steps: who’s doing what, by when, and what “done” looks like. • Track progress, follow up with owners, and surface issues early so projects don’t drift. • Spot repeated friction (confusing handoffs, missing info, unclear ownership) and fix it in a practical way. • Handle or coordinate complex support cases and escalations when they need more context or judgment. • Help the offshore support team succeed by clarifying requirements, tightening handoffs, and removing recurring blockers. • Improve escalation paths so issues reach the right person quickly, with the right details. • Make CRM reporting more reliable and easier for teams to use without extra help. • Set simple standards for data entry so reporting stays accurate. • Work with stakeholders to ensure reports answer real questions and stay current. • Coordinate operational follow-through after deals close (onboarding coordination, procurement steps, internal handoffs). • Navigate B2B procurement platforms as needed and keep requirements from getting stuck. • Coordinate across Commercial, Operations, Finance/Bookkeeping, and Support so customers and internal teams have a smooth experience. • Write and maintain SOPs for repeatable work (simple, usable, and kept up to date). • Improve handoffs so work arrives with the context and materials needed to execute. • Delegate SOP-based tasks to VAs/vendors: train them, set expectations, and do light quality checks. • Provide practical admin support when it meaningfully unblocks work, including: Inbox/email triage, Follow-ups and reminders, Coordinating small but time-sensitive tasks across stakeholders.

Job Requirements

  • Experience in business operations, program/project operations, or similar roles in a fast-moving environment.
  • Proven ability to take unclear problems and turn them into a workable plan people actually follow.
  • Strong coordination and follow-through skills (prioritizing, tracking, nudging, closing loops).
  • Excellent written and verbal communication.
  • Comfortable working across teams (Commercial, Operations, Finance/Bookkeeping, Support).
  • Strong proficiency with Google Workspace and Slack; comfortable learning new tools quickly.
  • Experience delegating work to offshore teams and/or vendors with basic QA and feedback.
  • Comfortable doing practical admin work when needed (especially inbox triage and follow-through).
  • High discretion and good judgment.

Benefits

  • Unlimited PTO: Flexible time off coordinated with your manager
  • Paid Sick Leave: Minimum of 40 hours annually, accruable after 90 days, capped at 80 hours
  • Health Insurance: Medical, dental, and vision coverage with company contributions
  • Retirement Plan: 401(k) with employee contribution options
  • Additional Perks: Remote flexibility, mission-driven work, and professional development opportunities
