Head of Business Operations - Remote

Campus is on a mission to accelerate the talent of tomorrow and reimagine what college can (and should) be. The problem is clear: college costs have skyrocketed, but outcomes haven’t. Traditional college hasn’t kept up with the aspirations of today’s students—and they can’t afford to wait.

At Campus, we’ve built a two‑year, accredited college where students learn from top professors at universities like Princeton, Stanford, and Howard, in live, online classes. Our students graduate with in‑demand business and AI skills—ready to launch their careers or transfer to top four‑year universities. Our unique approach is grounded in a pioneering technology platform and a heavily‑researched student success model that offers students dedicated advisors and on‑demand tutoring and coaching. We are looking for a Director of Operations to lead and continuously improve one of Campus's most critical operational functions. In the near term, your primary focus will be Financial Aid and the operational processes that support the student financial experience. Reporting to the COO, you'll work closely with Financial Aid leaders and cross‑functional partners to optimize day‑to‑day operations, solve bottlenecks, and design scalable processes that improve both the student and staff experience.

You'll inherit a complex operation and be responsible for identifying bottlenecks, partnering closely with Product and Engineering, developing managers, and continuously improving systems and processes as Campus grows.

You're someone who enjoys taking an operation that's already working and making it significantly better. You use data, operational judgment, and strong cross‑functional partnerships to improve how work gets done at scale—and you're energized by continuously refining and evolving an operation rather than simply maintaining it.

Partner with Financial Aid leaders and cross‑functional stakeholders to improve and scale critical student‑facing operations.

Serve as a strategic advisor to the COO on operational risks, opportunities, and resource planning.

Support critical processes such as aid applications, disbursements, billing, refunds, and payment plans—ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and compliance.

Improve existing workflows, identify operational bottlenecks, and implement scalable processes that increase efficiency, quality, and team effectiveness.

Create and maintain SOPs that keep cross‑functional teams (Admissions, Registrar, Student Success, Financial Aid, Product, etc.) Establish performance metrics and dashboards to monitor progress, identify issues early, and continuously improve service.

Flex into new operational areas over time as Campus continues to scale.

8+ years of progressive operations leadership experience, including leading managers and improving complex operational functions through periods of growth, increasing scale, and organizational change.

Strong people management skills with the ability to coach, mentor, and inspire high‑performing teams.

Strong project management skills, with the ability to juggle multiple priorities in a fast‑paced environment.

Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
