Manager, Customer Strategy & Operations

Rockstar is recruiting for a client that is a well-funded, seed-stage company tackling the primary care crisis. The client empowers Nurse Practitioners (NPs) to lead their own independent practices, keeping care local and closing the access gap. They are building a vertically integrated platform to help NP practices thrive as independent businesses, with solutions driven by data across patient engagement, revenue forecasting, care delivery, and community building.

About the role

The client is looking for a passionate Customer Strategy & Operations Manager to join the growing Operations team. This individual will be the go-to partner for NP practices, acting as a consultant and leading onboarding, ongoing growth, and ensuring each practice maximizes the value of the platform during the customer lifecycle. NP’s come to the platform at various stages of their business, and this role advises and supports them to become a thriving practice.

Equal parts relationship-builder, trusted advisor, quantitative problem-solver, and strategic operator, this person will guide practices through transformation and help them achieve clinical, financial, and operational success. This role is perfect for someone who thrives in fast-paced, early-stage environments, enjoys wearing many hats, and knows how to keep a smile while driving outcomes. The ideal candidate is comfortable discussing finances, budgets and scenario-planning and delivering a strong point of view.
