🔥 About the Role

We’re hiring a high-ownership Head of Client Operations to lead client delivery, campaign performance, retention, and operational execution inside a fast-growing startup environment.

This is not a traditional project management role.

You will fully own:
✅ Client relationships
✅ Campaign performance
✅ Retention & satisfaction
✅ Delivery systems
✅ Operational scalability

You’ll work directly with:

  • the founder
  • developers
  • outreach teams
  • operations

to ensure client campaigns deliver measurable results while the company scales rapidly.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in:

  • startup chaos
  • high-accountability environments
  • fast iteration cycles
  • imperfect systems that need improvement

If you’ve worked inside a cold email agency, lead generation company, or fast-growing startup and enjoy solving operational and campaign problems directly — this role is a strong fit.
