What this job can offer you

This is an exciting time to join Remote and make a personal impact in the global employment space as a Business Operations Manager in EOR Business Operations.

As a dynamic, curious, and energetic professional, you will help improve how EOR Operations runs end-to-end by driving cross-functional clarity, operating mechanisms, and delivery support across domains. You will partner with senior leaders and stakeholders across EOR Ops and beyond to enable scalable execution, measurable outcomes, and strong adoption of changes that span multiple teams.

What you bring

Demonstrated experience in business operations, program/project management, operational excellence, or a similar cross-functional role (ideally in EOR Operations or an adjacent operating environment).

You have strong project management skills and can take ambiguous, multi-stakeholder work from problem definition through delivery, adoption, and measurement.

You can facilitate alignment across teams with differing priorities and influence outcomes without direct authority.

You use AI thoughtfully to improve your own workflows and incorporate it into solution design where it meaningfully increases quality, speed, or clarity.

You are comfortable working with operational metrics and reporting (e.g., Sigma, Zendesk, Google Sheets) and can translate data into clear insights and recommendations.

You write clearly and default to transparent, effective async communication with peers and stakeholders.

You are a manager of one: proactive, structured, and able to self-direct with high ownership and follow-through.

You love improving systems and ways of working and can demonstrate prior examples of making processes faster, clearer, and more scalable.

You move quickly but with intention and demonstrate strong judgment about trade-offs, risk, and when escalation is needed.

Key Responsibilities

Lead cross-functional projects from ideation to execution, including requirements gathering, scope definition, milestone planning, stakeholder updates, adoption, and impact measurement.

Identify systemic operational gaps across EOR domains and coordinate remediation with accountable owners and partners, ensuring changes do not create downstream manual work or unintended side effects.

Drive cross-domain visibility and alignment across EOR Operations by maintaining clarity on initiatives, dependencies, risks, and decisions.

Identify and implement AI-enabled improvements to EOR operating mechanisms, ensuring accuracy, security, and measurable impact.

Facilitate prioritization and sequencing for work that spans multiple EOR domains, regions, or creates cross-functional handoffs; establish lightweight governance and escalation paths for prioritization conflicts.

Own recurring reporting inputs (efficiency, quality, throughput, risk signals) and convert insights into clear recommendations and follow-through with accountable owners.

Establish and continuously improve EOR-wide operating mechanisms (intake/routing, handoffs, escalation paths, documentation standards, and reusable
