Communication
About the role
- Ethos is looking to hire an AI-native strategy and operations leader focused on our fast growing Direct-to-Consumer Business.
- Our consumer business has endless opportunities - across an expanding portfolio of products, marketing channels, and sales motions.
- Our team is naturally aligned, truth-seeking, and moves fast.
Responsibilities
- Drive high-impact growth initiatives from concept to completion - owning some initiatives directly while enabling other leaders to execute others.
- Rigorously assess new opportunities: build business cases, model unit economics (CAC, LTV, payback, contribution margin), and make data-driven go/no-go recommendations.
- Develop a nuanced understanding of how various products, channels, and teams inter-play and leverage that understanding to guide teams across product, marketing, sales, and engineering towards the right goals and priorities.
- Own quarterly OKR planning and goal-setting processes across all functions - ensuring teams are aligned on the highest ROI opportunities and executing with clarity and velocity.
- Lead critical cross-functional projects that span Product, Engineering, Marketing, Sales, and Partnerships to deliver business growth.
- Partner with leaders across the org to fundamentally reimagine how their functions operate - identifying where AI can drive a step change in decisions, output quality, and what's achievable, and leading by showing what's possible.
- This leader will drive high-impact growth initiatives from concept to results across an expanding product portfolio, multiple channels, and the full customer lifecycle.
- Your job is to drive cross-functional initiatives spanning marketing, product, and sales to establish and scale revenue growth initiatives with full accountability for results.
- In addition, you'll often partner with leaders across the company to champion AI adoption initiatives that can help drive a step change in key business metrics.
- True operator mindset. You own outcomes and get your hands dirty to make things happen.
Requirements
- Genuinely AI-native - you are at the cutting edge of experimenting with AI, whether in your personal life or at work, and constantly pushing the boundaries of what's possible.
- Track record of delivering results directly.
- Ability to go deep and zoom out.
- You can dive into the nuances of a problem at the ground level, then zoom back to think strategically about implications and next moves.
- Rapid learner - you have the willingness and ability to ramp up on new concepts, channels, and product nuances quickly, understanding them at an underlying level, not just at a high-level business construct.
Nice to have
- 10+ years total experience, ideally 3+ years in a top-tier management consulting firm or investment banking, followed by 3+ years in Strategy & Operations at a high-growth, venture-backed company or a founding role
