Senior Strategy & Operations Manager (f/m/d)

OUR PURPOSE AT PLANCRAFT

Building the backbone of European trades together – with AI-first software.
We’re not just building software – we’re on a mission to create space for contractors & tradespeople by equipping them with AI solutions that work the way they do: fast, practical, and AI-first. With Tier 1 Investors from Europe and the US, like Headline and Creandum as well as 30,000+ tradespeople as customer base, we’re scaling across Europe to turn scattered tradespeople into thriving communities. We believe in zero admin, not zero personality – and we build every feature with the people in mind who wear the boots, not the suits. We’re #stoked to shape the future, #together as a team, and #humble in our mission to support the builders of tomorrow.

YOUR MISSION AT PLANCRAFT

As a Senior Strategy & Operations Manager (f/m/d), you are a strategic operator, sparring partner, system builder, and connector helping plancraft make better decisions, align around priorities, and turn strategy into coordinated execution.

Working closely with our Strategy & Operations team, Management, and functional leaders, you operate across three core areas: insights & decision groundwork, strategy translation & integrated planning, and execution enablement & company operating systems. You bring structure to complex company-wide topics, connect the right stakeholders and information, and turn ambiguity into pragmatic systems that work in practice.

As plancraft enters its next growth phase on the path to Series C, this role is central to strengthening how we steer and scale the organization. You take end-to-end ownership of critical company systems and selected high-impact, cross-functional initiatives — from diagnosing a problem and designing the target setup to stakeholder alignment, implementation, tooling, communication, and continuous improvement.

The role combines two operating modes: running the engine by operating and improving recurring company systems, and upgrading the engine by building the next capabilities and operating models plancraft needs. Your work creates the backbone for greater clarity, alignment, speed, and follow-through across the organization.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

• Act as a trusted strategic partner and connector: Build strong relationships across Management and Leadership, connect perspectives across the organization, and help bring the right people, information, and decisions together at the right t
