Strategy is a highly cross-functional group that partners with KeepTruckin’s leadership to set our long-term strategic direction, evaluate new opportunity areas, and deliver on key projects through close collaboration with business partners. Examples of major projects that the Strategy team takes on include launching new markets, experimenting with new sales and marketing motions, and prioritizing key areas for investment.
Senior Strategy Managers are tightly aligned to the growth objectives of critical parts of our business and responsible for managing key company projects. We are looking for someone to expand our business beyond North America and lead the research, project management, and execution of this highly impactful initiative. A person excelling in this role is both detail-oriented and comfortable with ambiguity, and adept at managing many competing points of view.

- Ensure that even at KeepTruckin’s fast pace, all major stakeholders are equipped with the research and findings required to execute on their major initiatives and quarterly / annual objectives
- Collaborate cross-functionally with sales, marketing, finance, product, business operations, and other parts of the business to acquire the right data and context for strategic analysis and new initiative execution
- Develop a holistic understanding of the various components of KeepTruckin’s business and be able to apply the multidisciplinary thinking to all your analysis and execution
What We're Looking For:
- 5+ years of experience; experience collaborating closely with exec cross functional leaders is a plus
- Experience in high-growth technology companies in go-to-market functions like sales, marketing, customer success, and operations
- Experience in management or strategy consulting, finance, or other analytically and strategically rigorous fields that require fast ramp-up and strong intuition around businesses
- Experience working on cross-functional projects with various stakeholders and a demonstrated expertise in managing such projects
- Strong intuition and ability around working with and drawing conclusions from data, and competency with Excel and other basic analytical tools (SQL experience preferred)
- Able to work in ambiguous environments under tight and unpredictable timelines
- Ability to navigate through large companies and build and nurture relationships with all kinds of leaders and teams
- BA/BS/MS from leading institutions
Creating a diverse and inclusive workplace is one of KeepTruckin's core values. We are an equal opportunity employer and welcome people of different backgrounds, experiences, abilities and perspectives.
