About the RoleWe are looking for a resourceful, detail-oriented Business Operations Coordinator to serve as the operational backbone of a fast-growing boutique advisory firm. You will wear many hats: managing schedules and coordinating team activities, supporting accounts payable and receivable, organizing client events, managing our digital presence, and tracking product usage analytics.
This role is ideal for someone who thrives in small, high-performing teams where no two days look the same. You will interact with senior executives, both internally and at client organizations, and your organizational skills will directly enable the firm's ability to deliver world-class research to Fortune 500 clients.
The right person is proactive, not reactive. You anticipate what the team needs before they ask. You see a filing system that does not work and you fix it. You notice an invoice that is overdue and you follow up. You are the person who makes a small team function like a much larger one.
