Why This Role Matters

Vouch is entering a phase where the hardest problems are no longer about effort, but about choosing the right bets and executing them well.

The Senior Business Operations Manager will serve as a trusted business partner to senior leaders, helping identify, frame, and solve the company’s most important operational and growth challenges.

Reporting to the CRO and working closely with leaders across Brokerage, Sales, Placements, Finance, Product, and Operations, this role sits at the intersection of strategy and execution. You will help leaders turn ambiguity into clarity, insights into decisions, and decisions into measurable outcomes. You will be responsible for driving execution across the entire portfolio of business initiatives, as well as personally managing a few initiatives that are cross-functionally complex.

This is a modern BizOps role: equal parts thought partner, analyst, and execution owner.

• Lead high-priority initiatives from concept through execution, either as:
• • A senior individual contributor owning delivery, or
  • A cross-functional project lead coordinating teams without formal authority
• Drive initiatives across:
• • Operating model changes
  • New product and segment expansion
  • Cross-functional process changes 

Cross-Functional Program Management

• Coordinate work across multiple teams and roadmaps to reduce coordination overhead
• Establish clear goals, milestones, owners, and success metrics for initiatives
• Track progress, surface risks and dependencies, and course-correct as needed

Impact Tracking & Learning

• Define KPIs to measure the impact of decisions and initiatives
• Partner with Finance to connect outcomes to forecasts, models, and productivity assumptions
• Capture learnings and feed them back into future planning and decision cycles
