Business Leader & COO — Meaningful University
Own Meaningful University end-to-end — P&L, go-to-market, partnerships, and operational execution — reporting directly to Vijay (The AiMan) while product and technology scale at HQ.
Dubai HQ · Global · Full-time
About the role
Meaningful University is higher-ed marketplace and university os — an in-house venture of TechMozer International FZE operating in a multi-billion-dollar industry vertical.
Connect students, universities, and education partners from program discovery through enrollment — with admissions CRM and commission tracking built in.
This is a senior Business Leader & COO role. You own University partnerships, student pipeline, and SIS monetization — higher-ed GTM and enrolment revenue. Vijay builds the technology; you bring the platform to market — revenue, partnerships, operations, and execution.
TechMozer ventures run lean and AI-native. You will not inherit a 200-person sales org. You will build execution with judgment, partnerships, and AI-leveraged operations — hiring only where humans create irreplaceable leverage.
You report directly to the founder and operate with weekly operating metrics: pipeline, revenue, activation, retention, and unit economics — not vanity dashboards.
What you'll do
- Own venture P&L: revenue targets, unit economics, cost discipline, and honest forecasting.
- Drive go-to-market: enterprise, government, provider, or merchant partnerships — pilot to production, not perpetual pilots.
- Build and lead a lean execution team (sales, ops, success, partnerships) using AI-native workflows where possible.
- Translate live product capability into market traction — deployments, references, and recurring revenue.
- Report directly to Vijay (The AiMan) with weekly operating metrics and clear trade-off recommendations.
- Accountable for: Partner institution contracts and student application volume.
- Accountable for: Enrolment conversion and admissions cycle efficiency.
- Accountable for: University OS seat revenue and implementation success.
- Accountable for: Regional expansion into new academic markets.
What we look for
- 5+ years in business leadership, venture GM, COO, or growth/operations leadership with P&L ownership.
- Track record shipping revenue and operational outcomes — not strategy decks alone.
- Experience scaling B2B, marketplace, government, or regulated-industry products is strongly preferred.
- Comfortable in AI-native, lean teams — you execute with leverage, not headcount bloat.
- Strong partnership, stakeholder, and negotiation skills across enterprise or public-sector contexts where relevant.
- Willing to be hands-on in early-stage venture scaling; overlap with Gulf Standard Time and periodic Dubai HQ visits.
