Working at Thoropass

Thoropass makes it as easy to do the right thing as it is to check a box. Our team members believe that partnership lightens the load. Not everyone can be an expert at everything – lending each other support in areas of weakness strengthens everyone’s offering. We collaborate openly and enthusiastically; without ego. 

What We Do

At Thoropass, we’re compliance experts so you don’t have to be. Pairing easy software that’s always getting smarter with expert guidance and continuous monitoring, we integrate into your process to prepare you to pass any audit, every year, with flying colors. Hundreds of growing companies use Thoropass’s compliance automation platform, expert services, auditors and partner ecosystem to get and stay compliant over the lifetime of their business. We offer SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and other infosec and privacy frameworks.

We are a rapidly expanding team based in New York. We were founded in May 2019 and raised our Series C funding in November 2022. Our top investors include: J.P.

About the Role

We are hiring a Business Operations Senior Associate to drive processes and metrics in our Infosec Solutions function (delivery of infosec audit and penetration testing services) - supporting Thoropass’s business outcomes and delivering customer joy. You will execute mission-critical, strategic initiatives, and deliver objective analysis and insights. This will place you in a pivotal role in ensuring the teams have the decision-support metrics, systems, and processes they need to succeed. We're looking for someone equal parts strategic, data-driven, and operationally oriented (with a "get stuff done" attitude).

This role will be reporting directly to our Director of Business Operations.

  • Administer management tools and processes to improve internal team efficiency, and effectiveness toward achieving business objectives.
  • Coordinate with delivery resources and Customer Success Managers to ensure customers receive the best possible experience on their engagement. 
  • Collaborate on key strategic programs that align with our business strategy, working closely with Customer Experience Leadership and cross-functional teams such as Revenue Operations, Product Management, and Customer Marketing.

Skillsets/ Requirements

  • 2-4+ years experience in an analytical, consulting, customer success, or business operations generalist role. 
  • Proficient in Excel or Google Sheets.

  • Exceptional written communication. You can convey complex topics to various stakeholders in a digestible and compelling manner.
  • Hungry, humble, scrappy, and will thrive in fast-paced environments.

Bonus Points

  • Experience building automation workflows in no-code/low-code automation platforms (e.g. Airtable, Zapier, Make.com, etc.). 
  • Experience with BI (business intelligence) platforms (e.g. Sigma, Mode, Power BI, Tableau, Looker, etc).
  • Working knowledge of SQL
  • Direct experience building operational metrics and reporting (ideally for B2B SaaS products).
  • Ability to code basic automation scripts in a general-purpose programming language (e.g. Python, Javascript, Google AppScript, or even VBA, etc.). 
  • Major bonus points for knowing the best keyboard shortcuts to work efficiently and an appreciation for personal productivity tools.

Compensation:

  • Competitive base salary
  • Exceptional private healthcare
  • Early equity in a fast-growing company
  • Work-from-home model
