The simple task of buying software, services, or tools at work has become hopelessly complicated at even the most innovative companies in the world. Today, enterprises spend $120T+ per year globally (>30 times larger than annual consumer e-commerce spend) and rely on vendors more than ever before to run their businesses.

Our cofounders started Zip in 2020 to address this seemingly intractable problem with a purpose-built procurement platform that provides a simple, consumer-grade user experience. Within the last 4 years, Zip has created a new category and developed the leading solution in this $50B+ TAM space. Today, the world’s leading companies like OpenAI, Snowflake, Anthropic, Coinbase, and Prudential rely on Zip to manage billions of dollars in spend.

We have a world-class team coming from category-defining companies like Airbnb, Meta, Stripe, Salesforce, Apple, and Google. With a $2.2 billion valuation and $370 million in funding from Y Combinator, Tiger Global, BOND, DST Global, and CRV, we’re focused on developing cutting-edge technology, expanding into new global markets, and—above all–driving incredible value for our customers.

Your Role

As the dedicated Strategy & Operations business partner for Zip’s Partnerships team, you will play a central role in ensuring the success, scalability, and cross-functional visibility of our Partnerships motion.

You’ll drive reporting and analytics, lead critical meetings, manage new tools and systems, and identify opportunities to improve how we collaborate across Sales and other functions. This is an internal role with no meaningful travel required.

• 2–5 years of experience in business operations, sales operations, GTM strategy, consulting, or other highly cross-functional roles

• Demonstrated ability to manage and drive complex projects across multiple stakeholders

• Strong analytical skills — you can interpret data and use it to inform recommendations and actions

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills — you're confident presenting to leadership and facilitating meetings

• Highly organized and detail-oriented, with the ability to juggle multiple priorities and keep projects on track

• Comfort working in ambiguous environments and taking initiative without perfect instructions

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience working with or supporting partnerships, sales, or marketing teams

• Familiarity with tools like Salesforce, Crossbeam, Zift, or PRM/portal systems
