Introduction to the Opportunity : Engineering the Foundation of a Health-Tech Innovator

At the intersection of educational technology and healthcare innovation. The company ventures are executing a dual mission to reshape critical industry pathways. One is dedicated to democratizing access to top-tier medical education, while the other one is engineering a new standard of efficiency and compliance in healthcare delivery for our clients and physician partners. Both ventures are poised for significant growth and require a foundational leader to serve as the architect of their operational excellence.

This is not a conventional management function; it is an opportunity to be the central nervous system of two rapidly scaling companies. The individual who assumes this role will be responsible for building, owning, and perfecting the very systems that will underpin our expansion and define our capacity for future success. This unique, hybrid role offers an unparalleled opportunity to master operational complexities across both the Ed-Tech (B2C) and Health-Tech (B2B) landscapes, making it ideal for an ambitious professional seeking to build a versatile and highly marketable skill set.

Position Summary : The Architect of Operational Excellence

The Operations Manager will own the entire operational workflow for our two primary medical ventures. The core mission of this role is to ensure our companies run with maximum efficiency, unwavering compliance, and impeccable service delivery.
