  • Translate strategic priorities into actionable plans, defining objectives, key workstreams, dependencies, risks, decision points, and measures of success.
  • Partner with business and functional teams to build alignment and lead strategic initiatives from problem definition through implementation, addressing barriers and adapting to changing priorities and risks to deliver intended business outcomes.
  • Produce senior-management-ready communications, distilling complex issues into clear recommendations, implications, trade-offs, decisions required, and next steps.

Qualifications:

  • Minimum of 3-5 years of relevant industry experience

  • Self-starter with strong ownership, judgment, adaptability, and the ability to work independently while knowing when to escalate.
