Business Operations and Strategic Planning Leader
There are NO limits to your career: come shape the future and be part of a truly unique global culture at OutSystems!
As we scale into the next chapter of growth, we’re investing in the operating system of our business — and at the center of it is the V2MOM: a clear, aligned, and accountable strategic framework that defines what we do and how we do it.
We’re looking for an experienced Business Operations Leader that has led strategic planning initiatives to drive our V2MOM operations and scale this work across the company.
- Partner with the Chief of Staff to the CEO and senior leaders to evolve and scale the V2MOM framework as the foundation of planning, alignment, and delivery.
- Drive the operational rhythm of the V2MOM across all stakeholders on behalf of the Office of the CEO, ensuring transparency, cadence, and accountability.
- Coordinate closely with Finance and Data teams to ensure the V2MOM is integrated with budgeting, forecasting, and performance measurement.
- Oversee the full rollout and adoption of the V2MOM across the company, tracking progress and status.
- Support leaders at all levels with tools, templates, and guidance to help them develop and track their own V2MOMs with clarity and accountability.
- Design and lead training, enablement sessions, and communication cadences to embed the V2MOM into how we lead and operate.
- Identify gaps and remove roadblocks — ensuring each V2MOM method has what it needs to deliver, and flagging where alignment or support is missing.
This role is highly cross-functional, with exposure to senior leadership as well as the CEO, and an opportunity to shape how we operate at scale. Ideal candidates will bring experience in strategy, operations, and org-wide program management — and thrive in environments that demand clarity, structure, and adaptability.
Other Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in tech and B2B environments
- Familiarity with V2MOM a plus
- Business Operations and other strategic planning framework experience
- Experience with AI-driven reporting, workflow automation, and decision-support tools
- Comfortable working across AMER, EMEA, APAC cultures and time zones
The Longer Story
OutSystems enables enterprise teams to build AI-powered applications and agents that reduce manual work, streamline internal operations, and accelerate impact. A proven low-code foundation combined with agentic AI and AI app generation capabilities empowers teams to move up to 10x faster with the assurance of security, scalability, and governance built in.
As the future becomes agentic, our customers need us now more than ever. AI has opened the door to extraordinary possibilities—but inside the enterprise, things are moving fast and feeling chaotic. Some early adopters are making progress in production, but for many, AI tools are sprawling without governance, data isn’t ready, and talent isn’t there yet. Enterprises are still drowning in application backlogs and struggling with legacy systems. But with the right platform, AI doesn’t have to add to the chaos. It can become the breakthrough that brings clarity—and drives real, enterprise-wide impact. At OutSystems, we’ve built that platform, providing the tools necessary for enterprises to overcome these hurdles.
We are looking for passionate, talented, and motivated people to join us in helping our customers build, deploy, and scale apps and agents—fast, helping them accelerate innovation while enabling secure, governed human-AI collaboration.
