About Jake Mania
Most companies don’t have a strategy problem—they have an execution gap. That’s where I operate. I lead strategy and performance across a 100+ partner network in Ford\'s Seattle Region, driving measurable improvements in market share, partner health, operational efficiency, and customer experience across five states. But I don’t sit in strategy decks—I translate strategy into results. Improved regional market share across Seattle and Portland metros Led network optimization decisions including dealership acquisitions, ownership transitions, and closures, aligning market coverage with long-term growth strategy Increased throughput and operational performance across a 100+ partner ecosystem Built and delivered data-driven market recommendations that influenced multi-million dollar investment, expansion, and network restructuring decisions My background sits at the intersection of- Strategy - Operations - Go-to-Market execution - Partner & ecosystem performance I’ve spent the past several years solving one core problem: How do you align fragmented operators to execute like a single high-performing system? That’s what excites me about moving into tech—where scale, data, and speed amplify that challenge.What I’m looking for - I’m focused on roles in- Strategy & Business Operations - GTM / Revenue Operations - Product or Partner Strategy If you’re building something where execution matters as much as strategy—I’d love to connect.
