About the Role

We’re hiring a Head of Client Operations to own everything that happens after a client signs — from campaign performance to retention and results.

This is a high-ownership role where you’ll manage client relationships, optimize cold email campaigns, and ensure delivery quality at scale. You’ll work directly with the founder, outreach team, and developers to keep campaigns performing and clients satisfied.

If you’ve operated in fast-growing startups, understand cold email and lead generation, and can take full accountability for outcomes — this role is for you.

Campaign Performance & Optimization

  • Diagnose and fix underperforming cold email campaigns

  • Review and QA campaigns before launch
  • Continuously optimize campaigns for performance and results

Processes, Systems & Documentation

  • Build and refine delivery processes and documentation
  • Create scalable playbooks and workflows
  • Track SLAs, client health metrics, and performance standards

  • Strong background in cold email, lead generation, or outbound campaigns
  • Hands-on expertise in:
    • Cold email strategy
    • Copywriting
    • Deliverability and inbox placement
    • Campaign optimization
  • Ability to personally write and improve campaign copy
  • Technical understanding of APIs, automations, and data workflows
  • Experience using AI tools for day-to-day operations and optimization
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to operate in fast-changing environments
  • Comfortable working remote with U.S. client time zones

Nice to Have

  • Experience in high-growth startups or early-stage companies
  • Experience managing multiple client accounts simultaneously
  • Familiarity with outreach tools and campaign infrastructure

Tools & Tech

  • Cold email platforms and outreach tools
  • CRM and campaign management tools
  • AI tools for content, analysis, and optimization
  • Automation tools and API integrations

Why Join

  • Own end-to-end client operations and campaign performance
  • Work directly with the founder in a high-impact leadership role
  • Operate in a fast-growing startup environment
  • Opportunity to build and scale systems, processes, and playbooks
  • Fully remote role with high ownership and autonomy
