About the team

Turo is entering an exciting new chapter of growth in the US, and we’re looking for a sharp, thoughtful and versatile Senior Strategy & Planning Manager to help us accelerate our momentum. This high-impact role will support company-wide planning efforts while taking the lead on shaping the end-to-end strategy for one of our key customer segments.
 

This role will collaborate closely with senior leaders across the business—including product, marketing, data, and finance—to drive strategic clarity, enable cross-functional alignment, and ensure execution is tightly linked to our most important customer and business goals.

  • Planning & roadmapping - Contribute to the company-wide strategic planning cycle, working with functional teams and leaders to define priorities, identify key initiatives, and map out sequenced roadmaps to support execution.

  • Structure problems and drive alignment - Work with cross-functional teams to define key challenges and opportunities, propose solution pathways, and drive shared understanding of tradeoffs, sequencing, and risks.

  • Business Performance & Strategic Reviews - Help track progress toward company objectives, support recurring business reviews, and highlight areas where we are over- or under-performing against targets.

  • Collaboration & Communication - Build strong relationships across the business and act as a connective tissue between functions, helping to clarify goals, drive alignment, and ensure teams stay focused on what matters most.

  • Organizational Effectiveness - Identify opportunities to improve how we plan, communicate, and hold ourselves accountable as a company, helping elevate our performance culture.
