The Strategy & Operations team acts as the bridge between company strategy and its execution across departments. This role involves strategy development, project planning, financial modeling, and analysis, placing you at the core of the business with exposure to senior leadership. It’s ideal for a hands-on, entrepreneurial problem solver who can move between strategic thinking and execution, working on high-impact, cross-functional projects alongside the Sr. Director of Strategy & Operations.

What You’ll Do

• Work with the Executive team on special projects, owning the end-to-end process from strategy development through cross-functional execution
• Provide research and analytical decision support, presenting clear recommendations and framing relevant trade-offs
• Continuously improve processes, streamline collaboration, and identify ways to proactively optimize costs
• Review, design, and help drive improvements to team structure to address knowledge and skill gaps in view of business needs
• Distill progress into executive-facing monthly memos, facilitating the review meetings to ensure the right strategic conversations are had
• Communicate effectively with senior stakeholders, navigating complex problem sets with agility
• Operate at top-decile levels of speed and productivity, dealing constructively with pressure and debate

Who You Are

• Ideally 5+ years of relevant work experience (e.g., investment banking, management consulting, start-up role in strategy, strategic finance, biz ops, or chief of staff function)
• Direct work (or advisory experience) with a high-growth tech/fintech company preferred
• Entrepreneurial - finds the messiness of 0-to-1 building exhilarating
• Strong conceptual facility; extremely fast thinker
• Comfort “fog sculpting,” making amorphous projects tractable
• Well honed interpersonal skills; able to drive results through others without compromising relationships and rapport
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced (and at times chaotic) environment
• Obsessive attention to detail; high bar for your own work product
• Advanced financial modeling skills
