  • Run office and team logistics (two offices, two countries, two payroll regimes, team offsites, equipment provisioning, real estate decisions).
  • Own vendor and tool sprawl (SaaS renewals, procurement, security review, cost optimization).
  • Set up the bench (define and hire replacements: HR/people lead, finance hire, head of legal) and run searches.

Qualifications

  • 6+ years in operations, with 2–3 years at a Series A/B startup scaling headcount from 30 to 100.
  • Generalist DNA; comfortable across finance, legal, and HR tasks.
  • Strong numerical skills; able to read P&L, model headcount and burn.
