Ololade Olaleye

I am Ololade Eunice Olaleye, an operations specialist with 6+ years running back-office, compliance, and people operations for venture-backed startups.

I am currently an Operations Specialist at Chore, a US operations consulting firm, where I hold a portfolio of 7 concurrent US startup clients and have supported 12 companies to date. I beat my assigned client revenue targets three consecutive months, delivering $22.6K against a $17.5K target at peak, and I am the only specialist on my team running a client independently while others work in shared pairs.

The work is broad by design. I handle multi-state employment compliance across Utah, Georgia, New York and California, including terminations, final pay, and state notice requirements. I run payroll and payments across Ramp, Brex, Mercury, Stripe and Gusto, and manage bookkeeping onboarding and recurring financial reporting. I execute regulatory filings including PCORI, SECURE 2.0 401(k) amendments, workers' compensation and annual state filings. I own vendor onboarding and offboarding end to end, from incorporation documents through device management and access deprovisioning. Across all of it, I build the SOPs and playbooks that let the next person do the work without repeating my research.

Before Chore, I built the HR and admin function from zero at a healthcare company, managed a customer success book averaging N70M (approx. $45K) in monthly revenue at a proptech platform, and led operations at a telehealth startup where I rebuilt onboarding, wrote the SOP library, and set the first operational KPIs the leadership team could actually track. Earlier, I grew partnership sign-ups by 82% through brand awareness campaigns.

I also work as Product and Tech Lead on a leasing and rental platform, which keeps me close to how operations and product decisions affect each other.

I am looking for an operations role at a startup that hires globally, full-time or on contract. I am based in Lagos, work US Eastern hours daily, and have been delivering to US clients and US timelines for over a year. I am strongest in early-stage companies where operations is still being invented rather than maintained.
