Strategy & Operations

Deducta Strategy & Operations Location: London, UK, near London Bridge. Hybrid, 3-4 in-person days a week. Compensation: £90k-£110k base salary plus equity Visa Sponsorship: Available for the right candidate Start Date: As soon as possible Why we exist Every decision a business makes, from the suppliers it trusts to the risks it accepts, eventually shows up as spend. This makes spend data the most honest record of how a company operates. Not the strategy deck or the org chart: spend describes what really happened. This record exists, but it's scattered across dozens of systems and decades of legacy technology. Companies spending billions a year still can't easily answer: Who are our suppliers? Where are we exposed? What are we paying for twice? We believe a business that can't see itself clearly can't make great decisions. Deducta exists to give the world's most complex organisations a true picture of how they operate, and the intelligence to act on it. Our ambition is to become the category-defining platform for enterprise data intelligence. We're well funded, growing fast, and have already processed more than £1 trillion of spend for some of the world's largest and most recognisable companies. Our partners use Deducta to deliver major business transformations orders of magnitude faster.

You'll have broad scope and real autonomy, moving between operating cadences, cross-functional projects, investor materials and analysis for the leadership team.

What you'll do • Company priorities: Turn the leadership team's priorities into clear plans with owners, milestones and measures, and keep them on track. • Operating cadences: Run and improve how we plan, set goals and review progress, from weekly leadership meetings to quarterly planning. • Cross-functional projects: Lead projects that span GTM, customer delivery and hiring, from scoping the problem through to results. • Board and investor materials: Prepare board decks, investor updates and the analysis behind them. • Analysis for leadership: Build the models, benchmarks and recommendations the leadership team uses to make decisions. Success in this role means: • Priorities deliver: Company priorities have clear owners and plans, and progress is visible without chasing. • Cadences work: Planning and review cycles run on time and lead to decisions rather than status updates. • Projects land: Cross-functional projects finish with measurable results, and the processes they create keep working. • Trusted analysis: Leadership relies on your analysis and recommendations for its most important decisions. Who you are We're looking for a high-agency former management consultant with roughly three to four years in MBB or top-tier management consulting, ideally having reached Manager. You'll combine structured problem solving with the drive to execute. A background in procurement or enterprise software isn't required. You might be the right fit if you have: • Top-tier consulting experience: Roughly three to four years at MBB or a top-tier strategy firm, with experience leading workstreams and working with senior clients. • Structured problem solving: You take an ambiguous problem, break it down and turn it into a clear plan with owners and milestones. • Analytical depth: You build models and analysis yourself, and turn them into clear recommendations. • Strong execution: You follow through on details, keep m
