Job Description

The Strategic Operations Leader will work directly with the CEO and executive team to drive operational excellence across the organization. This role requires a dynamic individual who can identify and fill operational and administrative gaps, particularly in early-stage departments, and support company functional areas by owning and solving problems.

This position is pivotal in ensuring the smooth execution of our company's strategic initiatives and will be key in bridging gaps across departments. The Strategic Operations Leader will act as a force multiplier for the CEO, enabling the leadership team to focus on driving growth and innovation.

About You

The ideal candidate will have significant experience in scaling a SaaS company, particularly in roles that involve Marketing, Sales, and Product. You will have a strong strategic mindset, the ability to manage complex projects, and the flexibility to step into different roles as needed.

You believe in lifelong learning and welcome the opportunity to constantly iterate and improve upon your skills. Fundamentally you want to use your talents and energy to better the world for others and contribute to the responsible management of global water and energy, and CO2 reduction.

  • Assist the CEO with ongoing needs, including preparing presentations for board meetings, investor updates, company operational updates, all-hands meetings, and key external events.
  • Take on and lead strategic projects that are critical to the company's growth but do not fall within the current operational purview. Work closely with the CEO to ensure these projects align with the company's vision and objectives.
  • Leverage your experience in scaling SaaS companies to drive growth at Pani Energy Inc. This includes optimizing go-to-market strategies, refining product-market fit, enhancing customer acquisition and retention, and improving operational efficiency across departments.
  • Collaborate with department heads and other team members to drive initiatives that support the company's goals. Ensure alignment across all functions to maintain operational efficiency and effectiveness.

Requirements

  • 7+ years of experience in a similar role, COO, CEO, Operational Senior Leader, with a proven track record of success in operational management, strategic planning, and scaling SaaS companies.
  • Extensive experience in Marketing, Sales, and Product management, with a deep understanding of how these functions intersect to drive growth.
  • Demonstrated experience in leading cross-functional teams and managing complex, high-impact projects from inception to completion.
  • Experience working directly with C-level executives, with the ability to influence and drive decision-making at the highest levels of the organization.
  • A history of identifying and solving operational inefficiencies, particularly in fast-paced, high-growth environments.
  • Proven ability to create and implement process improvements that have led to significant enhancements in operational efficiency, customer satisfaction, and revenue growth.
  • Experience preparing and presenting reports, presentations, and strategic updates to boards, investors, and executive teams.

Education

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering is required. An MBA or equivalent advanced degree is strongly preferred.

Skills
