Autoreviewa™ builds AI-powered vehicle procurement infrastructure. Leading organisations across
automotive use Autoreviewa to automate vehicle procurement, accelerate vehicle sales, and
operate on real-time market intelligence. Headquartered in Australia, the company aims to remove
friction from car ownership globally.
R O L E S U M M A R Y
Autoreviewa is entering a significant phase of growth across Australia and New Zealand.
The Head of Operations makes the company run exceptionally well. You'll own the operating
infrastructure across process, systems, partner delivery, contracts, risk, finance operations and
people operations, and you'll lead the Operations Coordinator and the vehicle replacement team.
Your mandate is to make Autoreviewa easier to operate, faster to scale and less reliant on manual
work.
The question you ask every week is: What breaks if we 10x If revenue, partners, people or
markets 10x, you find the constraints before they become problems.
This is a builder's role, not an administration role. We are building an AI first, lean company, and you will help us stay lean as we scale. You'll work with Partnerships, Finance and
Technology, alongside our dedicated AI agents that run several parts of the business. You'll be expected to plan for scale, spot problems, design solutions and put them in place through your leadership.
