Strategy Operations Manager

The Role:

Turing is searching for an experienced Strategy Operations Manager to join our Supply-side of the platform. This is a high impact role that focuses on driving a few critical initiatives end to end i.e., from concept to strategy to execution to scale up.

The role is ideal for a high caliber individual who possesses a strong mix of operator and management consulting experience. The role involves significant cross functional leadership to drive an initiative and move metrics – working closely with a diverse set of functions such as GTM, product, engineering, data science, operations and finance. It is an ideal role for a leader who is keen to work on high impact company-wide initiatives with a “general manager” mindset. We are especially interested in someone who has demonstrated the ability to work with  multiple levers to deliver business results in the past. 

What you’ll do:

• Driving and owning critical initiatives end to end i.e., from concept to strategy to execution to scale up.
• Defining the strategy for the initiative, potential impact, success metrics and go/no go.
• Be a key strategic thought partner to the Head of Operations, Head of R&D, and other senior leaders.
• Defining execution plans with key milestones and success metrics – including MVPs and scaleups – with close cross-functional coordination.
• Engage with GTM, Engineering, Data Science, and Operations stakeholders to align project objectives, secure necessary resources, and drive project success.
• Representative projects include - 
• Optimizing developer rates across our platform.
• Setting up a developer acquisition channel (e.g. channel partnerships with Bootcamps, referral programs, building an on-ground presence in a city)
• Improving Turing’s brand proposition.

We’re excited if you are:

• Comfortable with ambiguity in a high-growth, constantly changing environment. Turing is rapidly scaling and you will have to wear multiple hats. 
• A highly driven person who likes to operate with high autonomy and ownership.
• Willingness to get your hands dirty to make an initiative successful and have a strong bias for action.
• Capable of operating in ambiguity, creating structure, and handling various aspects of project management and operational challenges. 
• Can leverage data to drive insights and decision-making but also balance out analysis paralysis v/s outcomes.
• Strong stakeholder management skills to effectively collaborate and influence at all levels of the organization.
• Strong relationship builder.

Education and experience (preferred):

• ~4+ years of operating experience at a high-growth startup, preferably at the intersection of technology and operations.
• ~2+ years at a top management consulting firm.
• Good to have - experience with scale growth operations - setting up new channels (across digital & physical) of user acquisition and optimizing marketing spend.
• Experience in planning, leading & driving end-to-end initiatives.
• Experience with basic data analytics - SQL, python, excel. 
• Experience working with one or more of the following functions - Product, Engineering, Analytics / Data Science, or Operations.
• Minimum Bachelor’s degree (in business administration, engineering, finance, or economics-related fields).
