Strategy & Operations Manager

Join Trunk Tools as a Strategy & Operations Manager, where you'll play a crucial role in driving the company's growth and efficiency. You'll be at the intersection of operations, strategy, and all business functions, using AI to automate manual tasks and analyze key business metrics. This is a high-impact role that requires a strong understanding of AI and business operations.

Strong, broad business sense - you can dive into a problem in finance, people, marketing, or GTM, reason about tradeoffs, and figure out what actually moves the needle

About Trunk Tools

• A product mindset: able to prioritize, scope, and ship the right thing for internal "customers" across the company
• AI-pilled and fluent with the frontier - you use the latest models, tools, API calls, and MCPs daily, and you know how to turn them into working agentic automations

Responsibilities

• Automate manual workflows across finance, operations, marketing, and go-to-market (GTM) functions, turning them into efficient systems.
• Own strategic projects and analyses end-to-end, from framing the problem to pulling data, building answers, and driving decisions.
• Act as the connective tissue between functions, translating messy, manual processes into repeatable systems and keeping the organization running efficiently.

Requirements

• A builder's instinct for workflow automation and process - you go from a messy business problem to a working system fast, without waiting for a playbook
• Comfort in a fast-paced, ambiguous, execution-focused environment where you own outcomes end to end
• Exceptional communication - you frame problems clearly, explain your thinking crisply, and translate between technical and commercial audiences
• 4+ years of experience in a hyper-growth startup, vertical SaaS or AI-first environment, where you’ve thrived amid ambiguity, rapid change, and a high bar for execution
• Hands-on experience with the latest and greatest AI automation tools - Clay, Claude, ChatGPT, Zapier, and similar
• Strategy, ops, consulting, BizOps, or RevOps background - a real plus, not a requirement
• Construction, AEC, or vertical-SaaS industry familiarity
• Comfort working across finance and analytical modeling
