What the job involves
- As a Senior Strategy & Operations Manager, Customer Strategy, you will play a critical role in supporting and driving our strategic shift towards serving larger customers and expanding into new verticals within the beauty and wellness industry
- You will be responsible for helping to understand and accelerate our short and long-term customer growth by analyzing target segments, identifying requirements to win new customers, and ensuring operational execution supports our goals

Our take
Business management platforms exist for a wide range of industries, including retail, hospitality, and healthcare. However, despite a modern facade the beauty industry lacks specialized software and still runs on generic CRMs and basic spreadsheets. Recognizing a gap in the market, GlossGenius has stepped in to provided a specialized business management platform for beauty salons, spas and studios.
With little competition in this niche, GlossGenius has swiftly captured a large market share, with triple-digit year on year revenue growth. It serves over 1000,000 businesses and has raised more than $70M.
With this funding, the company is aiming to accelerate platform development off the back of the release of consumer experience, payment and automation products. And it is well on the way to fulfilling its long-term aim of developing into the Toast of the beauty industry.
