[Hiring] Business Operations Associate @Groupon

Role Description

As a Business Operations Associate, you’ll work directly with the Head of Category Growth & Enterprise Partnerships and help drive revenue, projects, and operational improvements in one of Groupon’s key verticals. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role. Not admin. Not slides. Real impact.

What You’ll Do:

• Business Reporting & Insights
  • Monitor core KPIs (revenue, margin, conversion, pipeline performance)
  • Identify performance gaps and growth opportunities
  • Improve reporting structure and dashboard clarity
  • Turn raw data into structured business insights
  • Your goal: leadership trusts the numbers and acts on them.
• Cross-Functional Project Execution
  • Own smaller initiatives end-to-end
  • Support strategic efforts tied to enterprise deals and category growth
  • Track timelines, surface blockers, and follow up with stakeholders
  • Ensure important initiatives don’t stall
  • Your goal: increase execution speed and remove bottlenecks.
• Operational Improvements
  • Map workflows and identify inefficiencies
  • Propose simplifications or automation
  • Support sales tracking and internal coordination processes
  • Your goal: help transition from scrappy execution to scalable systems.
• Commercial Exposure
  • Analyze sales performance and pipeline dynamics
  • Identify revenue-impacting bottlenecks
  • Gain exposure to enterprise partnerships and commercial decision-making
  • You’ll see how strategy connects to execution - and how execution drives growth.

• Fluent English

Requirements

• Part-time (20-25 hours per week)
