Job Overview

Lola Blankets is a fast-growing direct-to-consumer brand creating the most beloved blankets on the internet. As we scale, we are seeking a BizOps Associate to join our BizOps team - the quantitative right hand to our Product, Operations, and Commercial leaders, helping them make sharper, faster decisions across inventory, new product development, fulfillment, and our retail / wholesale / corporate channels.

Reporting to the BizOps Lead, this person partners with the Heads of Product, Operations, and Commercial - supporting their highest-priority projects, and deepening the analytical rigor underneath decisions about what we make, how we get it to customers, and where we sell it.

Think ex-consultant who’s ready to operate: structuring the problem, building the model, running the meeting, and making sure decisions get implemented. This is a role for someone who loves diving deep into inventory data one day and facilitating a quarterly planning session with senior leaders the next.
