Role overview

Brigit is in the midst of tremendous growth! As a Senior Associate in Business Operations, you’ll work directly with our CEO and COO, providing support and project management to help us grow, scale and run the business more effectively. You will help to build, develop and lead day-to-day operations, at both a strategic and tactical level. 

You will serve as a critical partner for senior leaders on ad hoc projects ranging from business decision support to putting together presentations for our Board of Directors. You can easily structure and conceptualize new ideas and back them up by research and data analysis. You make really complex things simple to understand by breaking them down into smaller pieces. This is also how you solve problems with ease. In turn, you put these new ideas or plans into action with your strong “get it done” attitude and hustle skills.
