Business Operations Manager

We do. We can’t cram it all in here, but you’ll start noticing it from the first interview.

Even our candidate experience is different. And when you get an offer from us (and accept it), you get way more than a paycheck. You get a personal BetterUp Coach, a development plan, a trained and coached manager, the most amazing team you’ve ever met (yes, each with their own personal BetterUp Coach), and most importantly, work that matters.

This makes for a remarkably focused and fulfilling work experience. Frankly, it’s not for everyone. But for people with fire in their belly, it’s a game-changing, career-defining, soul-lifting move.

If that sounds exciting—and the job description below feels like a fit—we really should start talking.

We are seeking a passionate, driven individual to join our Business Operations team within the Office of the CEO. The ideal candidate is strongly interested in technology, innovation, and the Employee Experience ecosystem. You have a proven ability to lead projects from ideation to execution with measurable impact. You excel at managing multiple competing priorities, knowing when to focus on details and when to take a step back to see the bigger picture. Impact drives you, and you're always thinking about how to move things forward.

You will lead BetterUp’s top strategic projects, including annual planning, acquisition integrations, due diligence, and more. These high-impact, cross-functional initiatives will require a deep understanding of BetterUp’s value chain. Handling sensitive projects, you’ll work closely with the CEO/Co-Founder, COO/Co-Founder, Chief of Staff, and Executive Leadership Team to deliver strategic insights and measurable results.

Lead the top Office of the CEO strategic projects. Historical projects include:

• →

  Oversee due diligence for partnerships with luminaries such as Brené Brown, Adam Grant, Pau Gasol, and Shaun White.

• 5-8 years of experience at Bain & Company, McKinsey, or BCG, with demonstrated success leading complex, high-stakes projects. Additional experience in a lean, high-growth scale-up is a plus.

• Strategic and Analytical Excellence: You combine creative problem-solving with a structured, analytical approach to business challenges and are adept at developing actionable insights that shape strategy at the highest levels.

• Cross-functional leadership: Proven ability to work across all organizational levels, particularly with senior executives, to drive alignment, influence decision-making, and deliver measurable results.

• Execution Mastery: You have a knack for juggling multiple high-priority initiatives while maintaining exceptional attention to detail and organization.

• Agility and Resilience: Thrive in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment where priorities can shift rapidly, and you remain steadfast in driving impact.
