Overview

As the Business & Sales Operations Manager, you will serve as a critical bridge across administrative, sales, and systems operations during a high-growth phase of the company. Reporting directly to the CRO, you will oversee and execute key functions spanning HR, compliance, ERP implementation, systems integration, and sales operations.

This is an interim hybrid role designed to build the foundation for both business and sales operations. Over time, the position is expected to evolve into two dedicated roles — Business Operations Manager and Sales Operations Manager — giving you the opportunity to shape both functions and ultimately grow into a leadership path aligned with your strengths.
