Strategy & Operations Associate – (TradeMore)

At Checkatrade, we’re building the UK’s go-to home improvement marketplace. Every day, we help millions of homeowners find the right tradesperson for the job – fast, fair, and without the faff.
Now we’re taking that mission even further with TradeMore, our new app built to help tradespeople run and grow their businesses with ease. From AI-led job management to time-saving tools, we’re building tech that gives tradespeople their time back. We’re looking for a Strategy & Operations Associate to help shape, scale, and grow TradeMore.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone who thrives in startup-style environments as well as someone who can think strategically one moment and roll up their sleeves the next. You’ll be part of a small, ambitious team, working directly with product, engineering, and commercial leaders to turn big ideas into real impact.

• Working closely with the TradeMore leadership team to define priorities, test hypotheses, and drive operational excellence.

• Using data and insights to identify opportunities, improve performance, and inform strategy.

• Designing and optimising go-to-market and growth processes as we scale.

• Partnering with product teams to improve the user journey and bring new features to market.

• Getting stuck into the details – from building dashboards to testing new workflows and tools.

• Owning strategic projects end-to-end, from idea to execution, and measuring their impact.
  

• Entrepreneurial at heart – you get energy from building things from scratch and finding smart ways to scale them.

• Experienced in start-up or fast-paced tech environments, ideally in operations, strategy, or growth roles.

• Analytical and structured in your thinking – you make decisions grounded in data and insight.

• A great communicator who can build relationships across teams and turn complex ideas into action.

• Comfortable with ambiguity, experimentation, and moving fast.

• Excited by impact – you want your work to shape something meaningful.
