What You'll own as Senior Manager - Strategy and Operations at Hevo:

- If you aspire to become a Founder, CEO, or COO one day, then this is the role for you. This position is a stepping stone towards that aspiration or a leadership role at Hevo or another growth-stage company.

- You will work on cross-functional projects with the CEO and other CXOs on the most strategic initiatives for the company across key verticals such as marketing, sales, recruitment, product, engineering and investor relations. The problems you will solve are not something any single function can solve.

Job Responsibilities:

1. Improve the Effectiveness in Execution across the Organization:

- Build a thorough understanding of all business areas - sales, marketing, product, and support

- Shadow the CEO, determine the business's priorities through weekly meetings

- Identify opportunities to increase the leadership team and the company's effectiveness in execution

2. Define and Execute Special Projects:

- Work with the CEO to identify strategic initiatives that have a high impact on business growth

- Conceive, manage and drive ad-hoc special projects that are cross-functional

3. Drive Executive-level Operations:

- Partners with the leadership team to drive strategic business planning, OKR planning, and board meetings

- Work with function heads to track progress on the key metrics. Provide a timely pulse on the health of the organization to executives. Highlight the areas that need attention

- Facilitate effective decision-making throughout the organization

What you'll bring to the table:

1. High level of First Principle Problem Solving - You must be good with Data, Analytics, and Reasoning. Nearly every problem you would be solving would be a problem that you have not seen or solved before.

2. Ownership - You will own the problem and can ensure that the problem gets solved no matter what. Enjoy success and own up to the failure and fix it. This would require high accountability toward the results and a no-excuses mindset.

3. Outwork and Outsmart - Ability to solve problems with high operational rigour and intensity.

4. Independent Thinker - You have an independent point of view on things which is based on all the inputs that you have analyzed, instead you should be able to build your own conviction and have the courage to take calls based on that conviction.

5. High-Agency Mindset - You should have the mindset to work your way through the challenges by convincing and influencing folks to be aligned toward the company-wide objective. You would need to work mainly with a lot of influence and little with authority.

Ideal Candidate Persona:

- 5+ years of experience in management consulting (McKinsey, BCG, Bain), Venture Capital, Corporate Strategy

- Work Experience - Should have experience working on cross-functional projects

- Preferred - MBA degree top tier colleges
