As we scale we are looking for a Head of Business & Revenue Operations to own our operational foundation lead a data-driven GTM strategy and drive sustainable revenue growth across the organisation.

About the role

This is a rare opportunity to set the operational foundations of a fast-growing SaaS business not to inherit a machine thats already running but to build one. If youre the kind of person who thrives without train tracks already laid who can pick up a broad remit and instinctively know where to focus this role was written for you.

As Head of Business & Revenue Operations you will own the strategic and operational infrastructure that powers Bókuns revenue engine. Reporting directly to the General Manager youll work across Sales Marketing Customer Success Finance and Product Development not by managing those teams but by leading through influence building the systems processes and intelligence layer they need to grow with precision and speed.

Youll bring a product way of thinking to operations: treating our critical user journeys activation conversion expansion reactivation as products you own with clear success metrics instrumentation and a cycle of hypothesis experiment and iteration.

This is a hands-on individual contributor role with significant influence. You will be the one doing the work (along with others supporting you) designing the frameworks pulling the forecasting models together and embedding AI tools into day-to-day operations. Youll operate at a strategic level: shaping the GTM roadmap advising the executive team and contributing to board-level conversations. Equally comfortable at 2000ft and 20ft.

If you want to make a real and visible difference at a company thats growing fast and has the ambition to match this is it.
