  • Identify and implement process improvements that increase clarity, accountability, and execution efficiency across teams
  • Support preparation for executive reviews, board updates, and company-wide communications on Technology priorities
  • Act as a strategic connector between Technology, Finance, People and other cross-functional Business Operations peers

  • 6+ years of experience in Business Operations, Program Management, or Chief of Staff roles

  • Proven experience supporting planning, prioritization, and resource allocation in a complex organization
  • Strong analytical skills — able to structure problems, build simple but effective models, and communicate insights clearly
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to influence cross-functionally
  • Outstanding project and time management skills; adept at managing multiple priorities
  • Comfortable operating in ambiguity and driving progress without formal authority.
  • Advanced proficiency in Google Sheets/Excel and Slides, or equivalent tools
  • Strong attention to detail, diligence and a collaborative mindset
