Jobbeschreibung

Aug 01, 2025 - Wander is hiring a remote Director of Strategy & Business Operations. Location: USA.

The Role:

We’re looking for a sharp, scrappy, and versatile Director of Strategy & Business Operations to join our lean team. You’ll be a thought partner to the executive team, diving deep into data, building models, and helping drive cross-functional strategic initiatives from idea to execution. If you’re equal parts analytical and action-oriented, and you thrive in fast-paced, high-ambiguity environments, we’d love to meet you.

What You’ll Do:

• Build and maintain detailed financial and operational models to support decision-making

• Conduct scenario analysis and distill insights for the executive team

• Work with large data sets to uncover trends and opportunities

• Translate data and strategy into clear, compelling narratives and presentations

• Collaborate across Product, Finance, Marketing, Sales, and Operations to move critical initiatives forward

• Structure and help execute cross-functional projects that impact growth and efficiency

• Bring clarity and structure to ambiguous problems

What We’re Looking For:

• 6 to 10 years of experience in consulting, investing, BizOps, or strategy roles at a fast-paced company

• Fluency in Excel/Sheets and comfort working with SQL or similar data tools

• Strong communicator: able to tailor messages to execs, operators, and technical teams alike

• Ability to thrive in ambiguity and turn rough ideas into structured plans

• Collaborative by default — you get things done through influence, not hierarchy

• A bias for action, comfort with “80/20,” and a strong sense of ownership

Bonus Points For:

• Experience in marketplaces, travel, or SaaS businesses

• Exposure to fundraising, investor relations, or board communications
