The roles you would open next. Covered from day one.
Every CEO at this size has written this list into a hiring plan, and cut it. Each seat is easy to justify on its own and impossible to fund together. Beacon covers all thirty-four.
You have written this list before. Then you cut it.
Thirty-four roles. Two ways to read them.
One is how you would write them into a hiring plan. The other is which system each one powers. Same thirty-four roles, regrouped.

2Three kinds of role Beacon will not claim.
The list is credible because of what is missing from it. These seats belong to people, and they stay that way.
Anything technical
No engineering, product or platform roles. Beacon reads what your company does; it cannot tell you which technical people your product needs next.
Anything customer-facing
No account executives, success managers, onboarding leads or support agents. Those are the seats a person holds, and the relationship is the job.
The head of the function
Every one of the thirty-four sits under someone. You keep the head of each function — the judgement, the calls, the accountability. Beacon is the bench beneath them.
Six of these are staffed today. Twenty-eight are not.
At around $34M with 200 people, a company runs five of seven analytical functions — two of them thin, two that do not exist at all. Illustrative.
You get all thirty-four.

Work that was never getting done, getting done.
Nobody is replaced and nobody who was going to be hired is not hired. These seats were never funded — and now the work behind them happens anyway.
For you
Every question you would have handed to an analyst has an answer already waiting, instead of a queue and a date.
For your team
Nobody spends their week rebuilding a number that should already exist. The work they were hired for is the work they get to do.
For your board
The analysis behind the pack, not just the pack — segment, cohort, product and team, ready before anyone asks for it.
The department you could never afford to open.
