About the Role:

We’re seeking a Senior Operations Manager to drive end-to-end execution of our most critical platform programs.

You’ll sit at the intersection of Product, Engineering, Support, Legal, Finance, and Operations, owning everything from program strategy to post-launch optimization. Your work will directly shape the seller and buyer experience at scale—ensuring every transaction on our platform is fast, fair, and frictionless.

If you thrive in fast-moving environments, love solving high-impact operational puzzles, and care deeply about customer trust, this role is for you.

What You’ll Do:

Own and Scale Marketplace Operations Across the Collector Ecosystem

Take ownership of key systems, programs, and processes that power the collector experience—spanning buyers, sellers, and internal teams.
Be the operational voice in product development—ensuring what we build works at scale for collectors and internal teams alike.
Continuously improve the systems that support end-to-end marketplace health—from transaction quality to financial accuracy to support readiness.

Bridge Strategy with Execution

Drive clarity across teams by maintaining program plans, stakeholder maps, and decision logs.
Ensure Finance, Legal, and Support are engaged early and stay aligned throughout each program lifecycle.
Represent Operations in product planning discussions to make sure we build what scales.

Launch with Confidence

Lead rollouts end-to-end, including training, support documentation, internal comms, and external messaging.
Establish clear policies and operational protocols for each program launch.
Identify and mitigate potential failure points before they impact the user experience.

Monitor, Optimize, Repeat

Track program KPIs—CSAT, payout failures, resolution times, issue volume, and usage metrics.
Build structured feedback loops with CX, Support, and users to inform future improvements.
Work with Product and Ops to prioritize optimizations based on impact.

Required Experience & Skills:

5+ years in program management, business operations, or marketplace enablement
Experience with payouts, risk management, or operational finance a strong plus
Strong familiarity with ecommerce and/or consumer marketplace ecosystems
Strong stakeholder communication, with the ability to influence without authority
