Role
Who you are
- 6-8 years of experience in Business Operations, Strategy & Planning, Chief of Staff, Consulting, Program Management, or Central Operations roles
- Strong business acumen – You understand revenue and cost drivers and can evaluate initiatives based on their business impact
- Advanced program management skills – You can structure and manage multiple initiatives simultaneously, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks
- Data-driven mindset – You use data to drive decisions and can build reports/dashboards that provide meaningful insights. Experience with Google Sheets or Excel required; SQL is a plus
- Influential communicator – You excel in both written and verbal communication, with the ability to align teams and represent senior leadership effectively
- Bonus: Experience in SaaS, B2B enterprise, or large-scale organizations; MBA preferred
What the job involves
- As the Director of Business Operations, you will report directly to the SVP and General Manager, playing a key role in driving growth and profitability across multiple lines of business and Marketing for Athelas/Commure
- While you are an individual contributor, you will be partnering with an organization of over 200+ people to scale the business
- And as an extension of the Executive team, you will participate in top-level discussions, help develop strategy, drive initiatives, and own the internal operating system—including meetings, metrics, and business reviews
- This role is akin to Amazon’s Technical Advisor, designed to give top talent direct exposure to executive decision-making while driving critical business initiatives
- The role is a stepping stone to P&L or business ownership, preparing individuals for leadership positions by providing hands-on experience in running and scaling a business
- Support Strategic Planning: Work closely with the SVP/GM and senior leadership across Operations, Go-to-Market, Finance, and Product to develop and execute business plans. Build financial models to evaluate new initiatives and assess their impact
- Own the internal operating system: Design, implement, and manage the company’s internal operating system, ensuring clear metrics, structured reviews, and effective reporting. Track performance against key inputs and outputs, highlighting areas for improvement
- Drive critical initiatives: Lead high-priority projects that directly impact the business. Act as a proxy for the SVP/GM, ensuring a high pace of decision-making
Our take
Gathering data on patients is vital to provide healthcare workers with the information that they need to reduce repeat hospitalizations, but retrieving such data requires patient monitoring through expensive medical equipment. This ultimately reduces spaces in hospitals and clinics when patients could otherwise be cared for from home, presenting an increased demand for remote patient monitoring (RPM) technology.
Athelas develops RPM hardware and software platforms, helping the healthcare industry monitor the health data of patients without the need for them to be present in hospitals or clinics. The company's solutions include remote devices for blood diagnostics, sensor-driven pillboxes, and glucometers, which connect through software applications for doctors, EHR integrations, and a unified RPM platform.
Whilst the company faces competition from other RPM platforms, Athelas stands out by providing a comprehensive range of hardware monitoring devices and software applications, ultimately contributing toward an all-in-one RPM ecosystem. The company reports that its solutions have resulted in a 30% increase in patient engagement and a 20% reduction in hospitalizations and ER visits. A merger with fellow healthcare infrastructure unicorn Commure in 2023 will combine both companies' fast-growing revenue lines and promise a lucrative future Athelas.
