Description & Requirements
At EA, we believe games are powerful because they bring together multiple ways people engage: play, watch, create, and connect. And increasingly, the biggest entertainment platforms aren't just places to consume content — they're places where communities build.
Creator-made content is already a proven part of EA's history — from community creation tools in Battlefield to The Gallery in The Sims 4. We believe new creative technologies and tools will expand how players engage with and contribute to our experiences, supported by thoughtful product design, safety systems, and global reach. Our focus is on enabling more players to participate in creative expression by making creation easier, safer, and more rewarding.
We're looking for a Head of Business Operations to report to the business unit leader and build the operating cadence that turns priorities into execution. You will own planning and OKRs, performance management, forecasting and unit economics, resource planning, and executive decision materials.
This is not a traditional Business Operations role. You will combine strategic and financial rigor with technical fluency in AI-native tools and platforms, and work closely with engineers, researchers, and product leaders.
Key Responsibilities:
Own planning and operations: Translate priorities into integrated plans, timelines, and measurable outcomes; drive alignment and clear trade-offs across initiatives.
Run operating cadence: Lead OKRs, business reviews, and milestone tracking to ensure ownership, decision velocity, and execution.
Drive performance management: Build and maintain KPI systems across product, business, and operations; develop forecasting models and identify risks early.
Support strategic decision-making: Partner with leaders to prioritize investments, resolve dependencies, and translate complex inputs into execution plans.
Develop executive materials: Create clear, data-driven recommendations, including investment cases, prioritization frameworks, and progress updates.
Bring external perspective: Monitor market, platform, and ecosystem trends and translate insights into implications for strategy and execution.
Ensure organizational rigor: Partner on organizational design, resourcing, and governance (e.g., RACI, vendor management, compliance considerations).
Requirements:
8+ years in business operations, strategy & operations, product operations, or program leadership in scaled consumer platforms.
3+ years of leading teams.
Strong analytical, executive communication, and cross-functional leadership skills.
Experience across technical and business domains, translating between product, engineering, and commercial priorities.
Proven ability to execute in fast-moving environments with multiple stakeholders across different geographies.
Familiarity with technically complex consumer products or ecosystems.
English. Mandarin also preferred.

Tips for Your Head Of Business Operations Job Search
Quantify operational impact on your resume
Head of business operations hiring managers look for measurable outcomes, not task lists. Replace phrases like 'managed projects' with specifics: cycle time reduced, headcount scaled, or cost per unit improved. Numbers turn a general resume into a compelling case.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists head of business operations openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Tailor your resume to each company stage
A Series B startup and a Fortune 500 want very different things from a head of business operations. Early-stage roles emphasize building from scratch, while enterprise roles weight governance and stakeholder management. Reframe your bullet points to match the company's growth phase.
Filter for titles that hide the same role
Head of business operations openings often appear under VP of Operations, Chief of Staff, or Director of Business Operations. Search multiple title variations so you don't miss listings that match your experience but use a different label.
Prepare a structured ops case study for interviews
Interviewers for this role routinely ask you to walk through a process you built or fixed end to end. Prepare two or three case studies covering diagnosis, decision-making, execution, and outcome. Vague answers about 'driving alignment' don't land without the operational detail.
Negotiate scope before you negotiate compensation
Before discussing an offer, clarify which functions you'll own, your reporting line, and your decision-making authority. Head of business operations roles vary widely in actual scope, and a broad mandate with modest pay often outperforms a narrow role with higher base.
Head Of Business Operations Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most head of business operationss?
The companies hiring the most head of business operationss right now include Florida State University, Axion, and Pfizer, with the largest share of openings in California, New York, and Florida, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand is particularly concentrated in high-growth technology and healthcare organizations scaling their operations functions.
How many head of business operations jobs are remote?
About 67% of head of business operations openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the role's reliance on digital collaboration tools and cross-functional coordination that can happen across time zones. Strategic planning, data analysis, and vendor management sub-functions tend to attract the most remote-eligible postings.
How do you become a head of business operations?
Most people reach this role by building a track of progressively broader operational or strategic leadership experience, typically moving through roles in operations management, chief of staff, or business strategy. You strengthen your candidacy by owning end-to-end processes, developing fluency in data analysis and financial modeling, and demonstrating that you can align cross-functional teams around shared goals without direct authority over every stakeholder.
Can you get hired as a head of business operations with limited experience?
It's possible to break in with limited direct experience if you can show ownership of a complex, cross-functional initiative, even outside a formal operations title. Candidates who have led a major product launch, managed an internal transformation project, or served as a chief of staff analogue are often competitive. Targeting earlier-stage companies or newly created roles gives you the best opening, since those employers care more about problem-solving ability than a long resume.
