Strategy and Operations Associate / Manager

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. Join us!

Your Role

The P2P Strategy & Operations role is a unique opportunity to sit at the intersection of product, go-to-market, and customer success for one of the fastest-growing segments of our business. You’ll be instrumental in shaping and scaling the strategy behind our procure-to-pay (P2P) product, driving both adoption and expansion across our customer base. This role offers direct visibility into high-impact initiatives, ownership of strategic programs, and the chance to collaborate closely with cross-functional leaders to solve some of our most complex and high-value challenges.

You’ll also help define our ideal customer profile (ICP), track segment performance, and support key P2P customer launches. Ultimately, your goal will be to accelerate P2P growth by making the product easier to sell, easier to adopt, and more valuable to every customer that uses it.
