About MoonPay

MoonPay is for builders with something to prove.

This isn't a "work on cool crypto stuff" company. It's a high-standards, high-velocity, high-accountability company building the operating system for value movement. If the internet moves information, we move value: crypto, stablecoins, tokenized assets, and whatever comes next. Four offerings make that real: fund, tokenize, trade, and spend. 30M+ customers and 500+ ecosystem partners run on us. Licensed in the U.S. Regulated across the UK, EU, Canada, and Australia.

AI is the default operating mode here. It's woven into every role, and we expect you to use it daily. It handles the manual work so you can deliver on what actually matters.

You'll thrive here if outcomes excite you more than process, if impact motivates you more than titles, and if you want hard problems, real ownership, and teammates who love winning, building, and doing it together.

The bar is high. The pace is real. We're building for what's next, for humans and agents.

Research has shown that women are less likely than men to apply for this role if they do not have experience in 100% of these areas. Please know that this list is indicative, and that we would still love to hear from you even if you feel that you are only a 75% match. Skills can be learned, diversity cannot.

1. About the Opportunity ✍️

We are looking for a Business Operations & Strategy Lead to work closely with our SVP of Corporate Development and help drive some of MoonPay’s highest-priority strategic initiatives.

This is a high-impact, highly cross-functional role at the intersection of strategy, business operations, and corporate development. You will act as a force multiplier for the SVP, helping translate strategic priorities into clear plans, driving complex initiatives forward, and ensuring alignment and accountability across teams.

You’ll work across a broad range of topics, from supporting strategic transactions and partnerships to improving operating cadence and tackling high-priority projects that don’t sit neatly within a single team. The ideal candidate combines strong strategic judgment with an operator mindset: someone who can move seamlessly from structuring an ambiguous problem to getting into the details required to deliver an outcome.

2. What you will do
  • Partner closely with the SVP of Corporate Development to translate strategic priorities into clear plans, workstreams, milestones, and measurable outcomes.

  • Lead high-priority strategic and cross-functional initiatives from definition through execution, bringing structure and momentum to complex or ambiguous problems.

  • Support corporate development priorities, including strategic transactions, partnerships, investments, and other opportunities that accelerate MoonPay’s growth.

  • Drive alignment across senior stakeholders and cross-functional teams, identifying dependencies, resolving blockers, and ensuring critical decisions and actions move forward.

  • Build and continuously improve operating cadences, including prioritisation, planning, decision-making processes, and tracking against key objectives.

  • Develop high-quality strategic analysis and materials that synthesize complex information, surface key trade-offs, and enable senior leadership to make informed decisions.

3. About You
  • You have significant experience in a high-performance environment such as business operations, strategy, corporate development, investing, consulting, or a similarly analytical and execution-focused role.

  • You are an exceptional operator who can take ambiguous, complex problems, create structure, establish priorities, and drive work through to measurable outcomes.

  • You have strong commercial and strategic judgment, with the ability to analyze opportunities, understand trade-offs, and connect individual initiatives to broader company objectives.

  • You have experience influencing senior stakeholders and coordinating complex work across multiple functions without relying on formal authority.

  • You thrive in fast-moving, high-accountability environments and are equally comfortable developing a strategic recommendation, diving into the details, and ensuring execution happens.

Salary bandings: $188,000 - $198,000
