About the role:

Clutch is looking for a Strategy & Operations Manager to join our Vehicle Markets Group / Pricing Team! We are responsible for turning complex pricing and operational data into clear, actionable strategies—owning reporting, frameworks, and cross-functional execution that drive funnel conversion, margin expansion, and inventory efficiency across the retail, wholesale and export markets

In this position, you'll turn market data into the playbooks that drive growth—sharpening our conversion engine, informing smarter day-0 pricing and aging rules, and steering inventory and disposition choices for maximum value. You'll own the reporting cadence and strategic projects that keep executives aligned, ensuring insights become action and our 12×-turn, margin-expansion targets stay on track. In short, you'll serve as the strategic bridge between analytics and execution.

What you'll do:

  • Funnel Conversion Optimization: Build weekly and monthly dashboards and forecasts, actively tuning conversion for both offer volume and vehicle spread.
  • Spread & Margin Waterfall Feedback Loop: Track expected, realized, and remaining spread, reconditioning costs, and front-end margin, feeding those insights back into pricing models for continuous improvement.
  • Retail Pricing & Aging Framework: Develop day-0 pricing and aging rules that balance days-to-sell, forecasted spread, recon estimates, and bid–ask adjustments to maintain a 12× inventory turn while maximizing margin.
  • Inventory Mix Model: Determine the optimal inventory mix and dollar weightings using market data, factoring in expected turn and Clutch GPU (gross profit per unit) performance.
  • Disposition Decision Logic: Define data-driven routing rules for Wholesale, Retail, and Export to maximize vehicle value.
  • Operating Rhythm & Strategic Projects: Run business reviews, OKR tracking, and cross-functional initiatives from concept through execution.

We're looking for:

  • 3+ years of experience in strategy/management consulting, investment banking, corporate development, or 3+ years at a high-growth technology company in a BizOps, or pricing operations role.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a data-driven mindset. Proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets, data visualization tools and SQL.
  • Willing to commute to our headquarter in downtown Toronto (60 Adelaide Street East); remote candidates will not be considered.
  • Analytical mindset ("good with the numbers") + execution-driven attitude (not afraid to "roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty").
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build relationships and work effectively across teams and levels of the organization.
  • Experience in a high-growth, fast-paced, and operationally intensive environment.
  • Strong attention to detail and track record of high-quality output.
  • Comfort with ambiguity and an ever-evolving business environment.
  • Experience or interest in auto and/or consumer financing is a bonus - but you can expect to learn on the job.

Why you'll love it at Clutch:

  • Be part of a disruptive, tech-driven company that is transforming the automotive industry, one of the largest and fastest growing B2C startups in Canada.
  • A unique opportunity to join a well funded business with product market fit, but lots of space to drive an impact and learn.
  • Freedom to innovate and ownership of your role - work on meaningful and challenging projects that have a direct impact on the business.
  • Opportunities for growth and development in a rapidly scaling company.
  • Competitive compensation and equity incentives!
  • Health & dental benefits.

Clutch is committed to fostering an inclusive workplace where all individuals have an opportunity to succeed. If you require accommodation at any stage of the interview process, please email talent@clutch.ca.
