SquarePeg

Head of Operations for Early Stage Tech Startup

National
Full Time
Paid
  • Responsibilities

    SquarePeg is a tech startup in the “Future of Work” space, with a mission of connecting job seekers and companies based on fit — not just resumes. We are at the forefront of figuring out what makes a specific person thrive in a given job or environment, and are building technology to improve the recruiting process. We provide highly curated job matching through behavioral assessments, psychometrics and data science - and use data to make the hiring process more personalized. We are small and lean, but have big growth plans for the coming year!

    SquarePeg is looking to bring on a Head of Operations to work directly with our CEO and CTO to help improve our internal systems, functions, and product and to prepare ourselves for growth. We are looking for someone who has helped scale a startup before and knows what good looks like - but who wants to get in at the ground floor of a lean startup. There are tons of opportunities to shape the company trajectory and have a direct impact on our growth. We want someone who can role up his/her sleeves and execute on work, but be prepared to manage as well.  The ideal candidate has strong start up experience, great work ethic, and is passionate and excited about growing a company.

    Responsibilities

    • OPERATIONS: Assessing the current processes, systems, and software being used for how we serve our clients, onboard job seekers, and get work done - and find out how to improve our productivity and efficiency. This includes evaluating our workflows within our Applicant Tracking System (ATS), our Hubspot CRM, our Zendesk CX portal, and our internal SquarePeg applications and building out better systems

    • PRODUCT: Work regularly with SquarePeg CTO, CEO, and Designer on improving our product and application, and building a product development roadmap. This includes giving direction to our designer on what is needed, working with our engineers, and planning out new product roll-outs

    • FINANCIALS: Working with our CEO to set up basic reporting metrics like customer acquisition cost (CAC), lifetime value (LTV) by customer, and other relevant metrics and KPIs

    • MARKETING: While this isn't a big part of the role, daily reviews of new user signups by source and other analytics related to our marketing efforts, and working with our marketing lead to help drive more customer signups

    • TEAMBUILDING: Helping to build SquarePeg's company culture, hire great talent, and work with team members to support them in their efforts to serve clients, attract new users, and grow the company

    Requirements

    • We are looking for someone with at least 5 years of experience at a scaling startup, but not someone who is so senior that they will not be willing to execute on work (everyone on our team is an individual contributor and has to be willing to take on and deliver work)
    • Experience improving operations, especially business processes and software systems within a scaling tech startup
    • Enthusiasm to join a small team and to help scale it
    • A strong work ethic and a passion for startups
    • Experience with common software (Hubspot, Zendesk, Jira, InVision, Slack, etc) and ideas on new systems we should adopt
    • Interest in HR tech and SquarePeg's mission
