About the role

The Central Operations team builds the systems that enable Valerie’s operations to scale. The team is responsible for workforce strategy, capacity planning, quality measurement, enablement, and operating model design.

This role is responsible for designing the operating models and allocation frameworks that determine how work is distributed across Valerie's delivery system. You will help shape how work is allocated across internal teams, automation systems, and outsourced operations partners, while owning Valerie’s outsourced operations infrastructure.

You will help answer questions such as:

• Which workflows should remain internal versus externalized, and how should work be segmented based on complexity, quality sensitivity, or customer impact?

• How should operational allocation models evolve as workflow complexity and customer volume grow?

• Where and how should we use pull vs push-based task assignment models?

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys combining systems thinking, analytics, and operational execution to solve complex scaling challenges.

What you’ll do

• Design Workflow Allocation Systems: Build the operational systems and allocation logic that determine how work is segmented, prioritized, and distributed across internal teams and external operational capacity.

• Design Scalable Operating Models. Develop scalable workforce models and operational processes that improve throughput, quality, and operational efficiency as workflow complexity and customer volume grow.

• Managed Outsourced Operations. Own Valerie’s outsourced operations infrastructure, including partner onboarding, quality management, performance monitoring, escalations, and operational reviews.

• Partner Cross-Functionally. Work closely with stakeholders across Operations, Engineering, and Customer Strategy teams to improve operational scalability and support customer growth.

About you

Experience:

• 3-5+ years of experience in marketplace operations, business operations, consulting, workforce planning, or vendor management, preferably in a high-growth startup environment

• Experience working with outsourced operations, BPOs, or distributed workforce models is a plus

• Strong analytical toolkit with experience using operational data to drive decisions

• Experience working cross-functionally with technical and operational stakeholders

Attributes:

• Systems Thinker. You naturally think in workflows, operating models, and scalable systems rather than one-off fixes.

• Structured and Analytical. You use frameworks and data to make decisions, prioritize tradeoffs, and solve ambiguous operational problems.

• Move with Urgency. You move quickly, make decisions with imperfect information, and drive projects forward without waiting for perfect clarity.

• Ownership Mentality. You take responsibility for outcomes end-to-end and proactively identify opportunities for improvement.

• Clear Communicator. You communicate effectively across technical, operational, and external stakeholder groups.
