Modern Animal is looking for a Senior Manager, Operations Analytics to join our growing team. We are looking for an analytical, operational, and strategic guru who wants to get down and dirty with data to drive towards our mission of bettering the lives of animals by building a place that is better for those who love them. You’ll solve some of our most complex problems through research & analysis, root cause identification, and experimentation to generate real change within our organization and for our people. You’ll optimize our clinical capacity by learning how to effectively balance our clinical labor supply with member demand. Most urgently and specifically, you will be responsible for solving one of - if not THE most - important problem facing our business: how to create flexible doctor schedules while capturing member demand sustainably.
Reporting to the VP of Business Operations, you will join a team of experts in high-growth startups and operational effectiveness, building a modern, technology-enabled veterinary company. This role is located in Los Angeles, CA with flexible opportunities to work remotely. You’ll visit the clinics as needed - at least 25% of the time - to deeply understand our customers and their needs.
What you'll be working on:
- Define and recommend a comprehensive workforce strategy to balance our team’s schedule preferences with clinic capacity requirements in order to meet business outcomes across clinics and regions
- Collaborate cross-functionally in shaping, testing, iterating, and bringing to life a workforce strategy and scheduling approach, for our doctors in particular
- Collect and deliver data-driven insights and strategic workforce recommendations. Identify research and analysis required to achieve labor objectives, and incorporate tools and 3rd party systems required to deliver upon our strategy
- Apply advanced workforce planning techniques and tools (e.g. scenario modeling/planning, demand forecasting, trend analysis, predictive modeling) to provide insight and recommendations on labor plans and long-term labor strategies
- Develop a tool - that can be productized overtime - to match supply and demand, while prioritizing the requirements and preferences of doctors
- Manage forecasts for clinic & regional revenue & cost drivers. Ensure alignment between labor deployment models and financial impact, including wage strategy implications
- Define, track, and manage labor key performance metrics for Clinic Operations and work with our operations team to track how our staffing is being implemented and optimized. Make proactive and corrected improvements.
You’d be a great fit if:
- 5-6+ years experience in analyzing and leveraging data to make strategic decisions (e.g. data analyst, corporate strategy, consulting, data science)
- A degree in Math, Physics, Statistics, Economics, Computer Science, or similar domain
- Expertise with SQL queries, ETL, A/B Testing, and statistical analysis (e.g. hypothesis testing, experimentation, regressions) with statistical packages, such as Matlab, R, SAS or Python; Excel / GSheets, Powerpoint / Gslides, Retool, Analytics & Viz Tools
- A fast learner capable of quickly understanding various operational metrics and products
- Ability to aggregate and synthesize large amounts of data and leverage a deep understanding of underlying systems and data to draw conclusions
- Strong verbal and written communication skills, including the ability and comfort to lead large meetings and extract executive-level takeaways
- The insights and self-starter capabilities to take on ambiguous & complex problems and solve them in a structured, hypothesis-driven, data-supported way in a scrappy environment
- Comfortable in a fast-paced, constantly changing, team-oriented environment and able to manage multiple deadlines simultaneously.
