The Role
This role runs two things at once: the leadership team's time, and the cadence and reporting rhythms that keep the Day1 client portfolio current. You keep calendars, meetings, client-facing documents, and correspondence moving for our leaders. You also own the reporting cycle, keeping every engagement's picture accurate and on schedule. You carry several client contexts at once, anticipate what is coming, and close gaps before anyone has to ask.
What You Will Own
Calendar command. Own complex, multi-leader calendars across time zones. Anticipate conflicts, make the judgment calls, and coordinate directly with stakeholders to keep things moving.
Meeting coordination. Run logistics for internal and client meetings end to end: scheduling, agenda prep, briefing materials, and the details in between.
Portfolio reporting. Own the weekly project status and financial reporting cycle. Pull from multiple source files, check every figure and date for accuracy, and get client-ready reports out on schedule.
Action follow-up. Track deliverables and deadlines across engagements. Chase owners with context, confirm each task has met its definition of done, and raise a slipping date early, while there is still room to fix it.
Project mobilization. Stand up new engagements end-to-end: the tracker, the folders, and the project record, so the team starts ready.
Client-facing documents. Prepare polished documents and presentations that reflect well on the leaders and the firm.
Inbox and correspondence. Manage priorities and incoming requests across channels. Draft, route, and follow up on behalf of firm leaders with professionalism and speed.
Event and offsite logistics. Coordinate team events and client offsites as they come up.
Confidentiality, always. Handle sensitive information with utmost discretion.
A Week in the Role
You work lean, and because you run the systems well, the output looks like more than one person's. In a recent week you might have:
Reconciled the time data, built the status and budget-versus-actuals drafts, checked every figure, and had client-ready reports out before the Friday cutoff.
Rebuilt a leader's week after a client meeting ran long, resequencing three other calls without anyone having to ask.
Caught a task marked complete before the handoff had landed, flagged it with context, and got it reopened before it reached the client.
Mobilized a new engagement in a day, with the tracker, folders, and project record stood up before the internal kickoff.
Drafted and sent a batch of client correspondence on a leader's behalf, in a tone no one could tell wasn't theirs.
What We Are Looking For
Experience supporting a C-suite or a founder in a fast-paced environment.
Confident in owning a reporting cadence where accuracy is non-negotiable.
AI-native. We expect you to use AI to do more in a day than the role used to allow. We also expect you to know when it's wrong, and to be the one who fixes it.
Exceptional organization and time management, with the ability to juggle competing priorities across multiple leaders.
Strong written and verbal communication: polished, professional, and concise.
Proven ability to handle sensitive and confidential information with discretion.
Proactive, resourceful, and comfortable operating with ambiguity and minimal direction.
Strong attention to detail and follow-through. This role runs on accuracy.
A real sense of urgency. You move without being chased.
Grit. You stay with a messy problem until it is sorted.
Composed and effective under pressure.

About the Role
Day1 is hiring a Business Analyst with CPG and eCommerce experience to support high-growth consumer brands navigating the complexities of digital retail, supply chain operations, and multi-channel expansion. This role is perfect for someone who understands how product, inventory, systems, and customer experience all intersect — and can bring structure to that chaos.
You’ll work closely with founders, operators, and cross-functional teams to document how things work today, spot friction points, and help guide process improvements, tool adoption, or data visibility efforts. If you've worked inside a modern CPG brand or directly supported them through operations, analysis, or systems design, you’ll fit right in.

Document current-state processes (orders, inventory, shipping, returns, finance handoffs)
Facilitate discovery sessions with cross-functional teams and extract clear business requirements
Map pain points and recommend actionable improvements (e.g., workflow redesign, tool selection, SOP creation)
Support systems integration or reconfiguration efforts (e.g., Shopify to NetSuite, marketplace + ERP syncs, 3PL workflows)
Partner with Day1 consultants to ensure changes are implemented effectively and documented clearly
About You
You bring 3–6 years of experience as a business analyst, operations manager, or implementation consultant — ideally with a focus on CPG or digitally native eCommerce brands
You’ve worked with a mix of systems common in this space, such as:
Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce (DTC storefronts)
Amazon Seller Central, Walmart Marketplace (marketplace platforms)
NetSuite, Brightpearl, Cin7, DEAR Inventory, SkuVault (ERP/inventory)

Loop Returns, Gorgias, Zendesk (CX/returns)
Klaviyo, Attentive, Yotpo, Postscript (CRM/retention)
You understand the operational challenges of managing inventory across channels, syncing order data between systems, coordinating with 3PLs, and tracking the full customer lifecycle
You have strong documentation skills — process maps, user stories, SOPs, business requirements
You communicate clearly, collaborate well with others, and thrive in a fast-moving, entrepreneurial environment
You enjoy making the messy make sense — and helping great teams scale smarter

About the Role
We’re looking for a skilled and adaptable Business Consultant with 3–7 years of experience to join our team at Day1. In this role, you’ll lead workstreams, contribute to strategic problem solving, and manage hands-on execution across a diverse portfolio of clients. Our projects span industries and functions, but they all share a common thread: helping founders and operators get clear, get organized, and get things done.
This role is ideal for a generalist who thrives in ambiguity and enjoys wearing multiple hats — from building financial models or mapping operational processes to facilitating stakeholder workshops or crafting client-ready reports. You’ll be a trusted advisor and a practical doer.
What You’ll Do
Lead or co-lead client project workstreams from discovery through execution
Synthesize complex information and distill it into clear, actionable recommendations
Facilitate client workshops and working sessions with confidence and clarity
Build strong relationships with clients and internal team members
Design and deliver high-quality outputs — from SOPs to strategy decks to implementation plans
Help manage internal initiatives to improve Day1’s own operations and tools
About You
You bring 3–7 years of experience in consulting, business operations, strategy, or a similarly dynamic, client-facing role
You’ve led projects or workstreams before and are comfortable balancing multiple priorities

About the Role
Day1 is hiring a seasoned Business Operations Management Consultant with hands-on experience implementing the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) or similar operating models. This role is perfect for someone who thrives at the intersection of strategy, systems, and execution — someone who can translate visionary ideas into grounded, executable plans and help leadership teams stay focused, aligned, and accountable.
You’ll work closely with founders and executive teams to design and implement the operational rhythms that fuel scale: Rocks, scorecards, L10s, RACI models, process maps, and execution plans. If you’ve been the integrator, the second-in-command, or the calm in the storm — this role was built for you.
What You’ll Do
Lead the rollout or refinement of EOS or similar frameworks for growth-stage clients
Facilitate leadership sessions, quarterly planning, and issue-solving workshops
Document roles, processes, and accountability structures (scorecards, RACI charts, SOPs)
Design and implement operating rhythms to support goal setting and performance tracking
Coach internal teams on execution, prioritization, and follow-through
About You
You bring 10+ years of experience in business operations, consulting, or executive leadership
You’ve led or supported multiple EOS/Traction implementations or have served as an internal Integrator or COO-type role in an EOS-based company
You are equal parts strategist and operator — structured, detail-oriented, and practical
You’re a skilled facilitator who can manage competing personalities and keep a team focused
You’re energized by working with entrepreneurial teams and helping them bring structure to scale
