• Manage Kraken’s enterprise operations model, at the nexus of the operations of multiple functions and practices, including Finance, Tax, Legal, Compliance, People, and Risk
• Lead Kraken's quarterly planning efforts and own the process of preparing and presenting periodic business reviews, board presentations, and internal leadership communications that clearly articulate the key drivers of Kraken’s performance
• Build and maintain close relationships with cross-functional stakeholders, including all product and corporate functions critical to business performance
• Provide hands-on coaching and mentorship to take our stellar Business Operations team to even greater heights
  
  

• 10+ years of experience in a similar business operations capacity, ideally at high-growth technology companies in the fintech or crypto spaces, or with a top-tier management consulting firm or investment bank
• Analytical powerhouse, with ninja-like ability to pick apart a business and drive critical insights that lead to operational improvement
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills (i.e., ability to distill complex ideas into tight frameworks and storytelling)
• Experience leading successful company planning exercises for hyper-growth companies, leading to strong business outcomes in subsequent cycles
• Experience leading and implementing large, complex cross-functional initiatives from inception to completion in a remote working environment
• Strong executive presence and a track record of driving effective decisions and progress on challenging initiatives
