## About the role

Ethos is looking to hire an AI-native strategy and operations leader focused on our fast growing Direct-to-Consumer Business. This leader will drive high-impact growth initiatives from concept to results across an expanding product portfolio, multiple channels, and the full customer lifecycle.

## What they're looking for

- 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
- True operator mindset. You own outcomes and get your hands dirty to make things happen
- Track record of delivering results directly. You have multiple stories where you owned and drove initiatives end-to-end and know what it takes to truly deliver in fast-moving environments, not just make recommendations
- 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
- Structured thinking — you take complex, ambiguous problems and break them down into clear, actionable frameworks that drive decisions
- 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
