What We Need
We are hiring an Operations Manager to take ownership of the end to end operations to support Clasp’s loan repayment programs, including but not limited to repayment operations, employee communications, and wrap-around services aimed to increase retention of employees with our employer partners.. This role is critical to not only ensuring repayment cycles run smoothly and accurately for our partners’ employees nationwide, but focusing on the entire user lifecycle - adapting our operations to match our platform capabilities. This role may occasionally step in to support employees directly by handling inquiries with our Customer Support team, particularly during onboarding or as backfill coverage. This provides valuable exposure to the employee experience and strengthens cross-functional understanding. This position will be instrumental in building scalable processes, partnering with Product on automation initiatives, and ensuring operational excellence as we grow to serve broad populations of new graduates, employees returning to school, and seasoned employees. We expect business lines to 10x in the next year and beyond and are looking for an individual to help us navigate that growth with grit, critical decision making, and scalability.
