What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a central ops role where I can own product launches and customer operations end-to-end, build scalable workflows (SOPs, onboarding, escalation), and partner cross-functionally—turning customer insights into measurable improvements.

I’m an Operations Manager who thrives on owning complex, moving parts—product launches, customer operations, and the workflows that keep a growing team functional. I helped scale a DTC brand from 1 to 7 products and from 40K to 80K customers, while cutting refund rates from 8.5% to 5.2% through proactive customer education, onboarding redesign, and feedback loops.

In my central ops role, I launched 7 products end-to-end in the Norwegian market, coordinating the full cycle from manufacturer negotiation and freight coordination to Shopify build, Klaviyo onboarding flows, Norwegian copywriting, compliance, and post-launch optimization. I built the operational support infrastructure—SOPs, onboarding systems, macros, escalation workflows, flowcharts, and customer communication frameworks—while managing customer support operations (150–300 daily inquiries) and coordinating up to 30+ internal and external collaborators across time zones and languages.
