Your projects will often span offices, time zones, and hemispheres. It's your job to coordinate the players and keep them up to date on progress and deadlines.

Responsibilities

• Lead cross-functional design sessions and utilize Gemini to architect detailed service blueprints and process maps, driving the re-engineering of end-to-end customer journeys.
• Create data-motivated business cases that articulate problem statements, propose solution Business Requirement Documents (BRDs), and expect Return on Investment (ROI) to secure stakeholder buy-in.
• Partner with process owners, product managers, and strategy teams to translate business needs into process improvement initiatives.
• Act as a key influencer to drive organizational alignment and guide teams through the implementation of process transformations.
• Design and implement measurement systems by defining Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and control plans to track process health and sustain improvements.
