Sr. Manager, Operations Strategy

The role:

We’re looking for a Sr Manager / Director, Operations Strategy to own Curri’s most complex, cross-functional operational initiatives and provide leverage to Operations leadership. This role operates as an extension of Ops leadership — driving clarity, execution, and results across high-stakes initiatives that don’t fit neatly within a single team. You will be trusted to take ambiguous problems, establish ownership, and deliver measurable business impact.

• Own and drive Curri’s highest-priority, cross-functional Operations initiatives end-to-end.
• Lead Operations goal setting, KPI definition, reporting, and business reviews.
• Identify operational gaps and push solutions through execution with rigor and accountability.
• Partner closely with Product, Engineering, Finance, Sales, and Operations leaders to align priorities and execution.
• Provide clear, concise analysis, recommendations, and updates to executive leadership.

• Serve as a force multiplier for Operations leadership by taking full ownership of complex, ambiguous work.

• Ability to take ambiguous, cross-functional problems and own them end-to-end.
• Strong operational judgment with a demonstrated ability to balance depth vs. speed.
• Proven track record of driving execution without formal authority.
• Highly analytical mindset; comfortable using data to diagnose issues and make decisions.
• Clear, direct communication skills with senior leaders and operators.

• Experience in marketplace or complex operations environments.
• Background in operations strategy or business operations roles at a fast growing company..
• Experience at high-scale operators (e.g., Uber, DoorDash, Flexport, Lyft) or top-tier consulting / investment banking firms.
• Demonstrated history of true ownership — not just advisory work.

• True ownership of Curri’s hardest operational problems with real business impact.
• Direct partnership with executive leadership and high visibility across the company.
• Opportunity to shape how Curri operates at scale.
• Remote-friendly role with preference for Ventura-based candidates.
• Competitive compensation and benefits including health, dental, vision, 401K, and equity.
