Business Operations & Strategy Associate

 We’re looking for a driven, proactive, and exceptional problem solver as a Business Operations & Strategy Associate. You’ll be a key player in driving step-change operational improvements, supporting decision-making workstreams, and pushing strategic initiatives that will directly impact growth, unit economics, and more! Your work will inherently be cross-functional and you will regularly be working with our Founders & Management Team to develop solutions to big problems. You will report to our VP of Finance & Strategy and enjoy autonomy leading projects. Our ideal candidate is genuinely interested in owning a healthy mix of both strategic and execution-oriented tasks -- if you love wearing multiple hats while solving tough and ambiguous problems, please apply!

•  Impeccable attention to detail supported by excellent written and verbal cross-functional communication (with a tendency to over-communicate).

•  ~2-4 years of work experience in a finance/banking, strategy/consulting, analytics, or operational role (ideally in high-growth B2B SaaS setting) will make you especially successful for this position.
•  Experience with Excel, Salesforce, or Rev Rec tools like SaaSOptics (or willingness to learn!) would be competitive differentiator.
