Location: NYC
Reports to: CEO
About the Role
We’re looking for a highly motivated, analytical and adaptable Strategic Operations Analyst to work directly with SuperAwesome’s Executive team. This is a unique opportunity to own and solve cross-functional business problems across strategy, operations, finance and product while helping to drive key decisions and execute high-impact initiatives.
This is a generalist, problem-solving role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, is data- and insight-savvy, and is a great communicator. You’ll act as a trusted extension of the Exec team (CEO, CSO, Finance Director, CPO, CTO, CRO) -- owning the execution of strategic projects, identifying and leading the charge on operational changes, and tackling the kinds of business-wide challenges that don’t neatly fit into a single function.
This is a role for someone who wants to operate, build, and solve problems at pace.
What You’ll Do
Exec Enablement
Own the operating cadence: weekly priorities, OKR/KR tracking, meeting hygiene, follow-ups
Turn leadership conversations into action: write crisp memos, capture decisions, assign owners, drive closure
Act as a sounding board and thought partner on key business decisions
Strategic Projects
Partner with Execs to scope and execute high-priority strategic initiatives. Take ownership of high-impact problems and act as the owner to move cross-discipline teams to action and results
Conduct market, business operations and financial analysis to support strategic and operational decision-making
Drive cross-functional projects from idea through to execution
Business Analysis & Improvement
Analyse company operations and market performance to identify trends, risks, and opportunities
Translate complex data into clear, actionable insights for leadership
Spot inefficiencies across the business and proactively fix them
Help ensure priorities are clear and execution stays on track
Build structure where it doesn’t exist - processes, tools, or ways of working
Step into critical gaps as the company evolves and scales
Communication and Team Engagement
Work closely with Exec on day-to-day priorities and long-term planning ensuring that they are well-communicated, understood and actionable across departments
Support material preparation for company meetings, financial summaries and internal communications
Support team engagement among US employees and with alignment to UK/EMEA-based teams. Provide a feedback loop from teams to Exec
What We’re Looking For
2–6 years of experience in consulting, investment banking, startups, or a similar analytical/operational role
Bias to action – you don’t wait to be told what to do; you figure it out and move
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills; highly comfortable working with data and producing models
Able to structure ambiguous problems and drive them to resolution, balancing strategic thinking with hands-on execution
Organized with strong communication skills, with the ability to synthesise insights clearly
Strong interpersonal skills—you build trust quickly across teams
In-office at least twice per week
