As part of our interview process, we request that candidates have their cameras on during video interviews. This helps foster meaningful conversation and allows us to create an experience that closely resembles our standard working environment. Certain interview steps may take place by phone. For remote roles, and at our discretion, candidates may be asked to participate in an on-site interview as part of the final stages of the process.
We understand there may be occasional circumstances requiring accommodation and are happy to discuss them as needed. Your recruiter will be able to clarify expectations and answer any questions you have.
We are hiring a Director, Consumer Analytics & Business Operations for the PSA Authentication & Grading business. This role drives the analytics strategy and roadmap across Consumer Grading, which includes D2C Grading, Subscriptions, and the customer experience powering each. The ideal candidate is deeply analytical, comfortable moving between individual contribution and people management, and skilled at translating data into strategic recommendations for executive stakeholders.
You'll report directly to the Head of Consumer and Business Operations and manage two director reports: Manager, Analytics and Senior Manager, Business Operations. You’ll work from our Santa Ana office. Remote or hybrid candidates will also be considered. We believe that there is significant value in in-person collaboration. If you live within a 1 hour commuting distance to one of our offices, you will be required to be onsite most of the time. This will be discussed further as part of the recruiting process.
What you'll do:
Set strategic direction for PSA Grading Analytics and Business Operations; own the measurement and instrumentation across these areas
Operate as a player-coach: produce hands-on, high-leverage analysis while managing and developing two direct reports
Partner with Data, Pricing, Product, and Finance to define key metrics and measurement frameworks that matter most to the business
Lead deep-dive analyses that inform strategy, synthesizing findings into clear recommendations for executive and board audiences
Identify and drive process improvements across the analytics and business operations functions
Set the bar for analytical rigor and speed — establishing best practices for reporting, forecasting, and experimentation, and leveraging AI to accelerate insights
Who you are:
8+ years in business analytics, product analytics, or consulting (ideally in a D2C business) with a Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience; a Master's in a quantitative field is a bonus
Proven track record developing talent and leading a team of analysts
Skilled communicator who can distill complex analysis into clear, actionable recommendations for senior leadership
Strategic thinker with a bias for action and strong business judgment
Expert in SQL and data abstraction, with fluency in BI/visualization tools like Tableau or Lightdash; dbt experience a plus
AI-forward, with hands-on experience using tools like Claude to speed up analysis, reporting, and daily workflows — ideally integrating AI directly into data/BI tooling
