You will partner closely with the Head of Operations and cross-functional stakeholders, supporting a fast-growing edtech company by enabling financial rigor, enhancing employee experience, and boosting team productivity.

Requirements

Exceptional attention to detail—you catch the billing discrepancy, the missed onboarding step, the expired COI before anyone else does.
Strong ability to context-switch and multi-task across parallel workstreams without dropping threads, and comfort holding many small open loops at once.
3–5 years of relevant experience in operations, ideally spanning finance ops, people ops, talent ops, and/or general internal ops.
Availability to work 25–35 hours per week for ~3 months (contract may be extended longer depending on need).
Flexibility to maintain regular availability during overlapping U.S. business hours (approximately 10am–3pm PT).
Ability to work independently, prioritize against ambiguous or shifting inputs, and handle confidential information (employee and financial data) with discretion.

Experience at a Series A/B-stage startup during a period of rapid headcount growth.
