• Identify, scope, and drive net-new business opportunities—from hypothesis to implementation.
• Own key business metrics, operating cadences, and cross-functional alignment processes that help us scale responsibly.
• Work directly with our CEO and partner with leadership across Product, Sales, Customer Success, and Operations to turn insight into action.
• Help shape our long-term operating model and act as a force multiplier across the leadership team.
  

Who You Are

• You bring 6–10+ years of experience in fast-paced, strategic roles (e.g. GM, BizOps, Strategy, Consulting, IB, VC-backed startup leadership).
• You’re a structured thinker who can frame complex problems and drive decisions across stakeholders.
• You move easily between big-picture strategy and operational detail.
• You’ve led cross-functional initiatives end-to-end, ideally in SaaS or platform businesses.
• You’re a clear, concise communicator with high ownership and strong collaborative instincts.
• Bonus: experience launching new markets, spinning up business lines, or working in regulated industries.
  

Why Taktile

• Join a fast-growing company with product-market fit and global ambition.
• Work on high-stakes, visible projects that shape the future of the business.
• Partner with a high-caliber, low-ego team that values trust, clarity, and execution.
