You will also partner closely with senior leadership to enhance the operational rhythm of the organization, establish clear metrics for critical initiatives, and contribute to the preparation of high-level content for executive-level discussions.

In this highly visible role, you will tackle complex, strategic challenges, gain deep insight into the most pressing issues on the executive agenda, have direct exposure to senior-level decision-making processes, and cultivate influential relationships with leaders across all functions of the company.

We are seeking a strategic leader with a strong background in product and market strategy, coupled with a proven track record of success in all facets of strategy development and execution, including project leadership, sophisticated business analysis, and effective problem-solving.

    • Oversee the generation of critical business insights through advanced analytics and in-depth market research, providing actionable intelligence on market trends, customer needs, and competitive dynamics.
    • Identify and champion key areas within the business where strategic interventions can drive substantial performance improvements, unlock significant growth potential, and provide clarity for effective execution.
    • Spearhead the development of robust business cases, including sophisticated financial modeling, comprehensive cost-benefit analyses, thorough risk assessments, and insightful scenario planning to support strategic decision-making.

    • 8-12+ years of progressive experience, including 3+ years post-MBA (preferred), in a combination of strategic roles, business operations leadership, and strategy within a technology company, coupled with experience at a top-tier management consulting firm or in a corporate strategy function with significant exposure to the technology sector.

    • Demonstrated expertise in leading large-scale strategic initiatives from initial problem framing and rigorous research/analysis through the development of comprehensive business and operational plans, and ultimately driving successful execution.
    • Exceptional mathematical, data analysis, and financial modeling skills with the proven ability to independently address complex business challenges with minimal guidance.
    • Strong executive presence and outstanding written/verbal communication skills to effectively engage and influence senior executives across various geographies and functions; comfortable in both business and technical discussions.
    • Highly developed influencing skills with a proven ability to lead and motivate extended and virtual teams to achieve strategic objectives.
    • A proactive self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced, highly collaborative, and innovative high-growth environment.
