Key Responsibilities

  • Own the ELT operating cadence, including agenda design and facilitation for weekly staff meetings (operational and transformation tracks), monthly offsites, and quarterly reviews

  • Prepare and facilitate the bi-weekly Exec Transformation Review and monthly Value Creation Steering Committee, including materials, RAID log, and value capture tracking
  • Maintain the initiative portfolio infrastructure: milestones, dependencies, risk/issue logs, and benefit realization tracking in coordination with Finance
  • Lead the program management of the company’s AI-driven strategy-to-execution platform, coordinating with analytics and engineering teams on build priorities, integrations, and rollout
  • Define the operating requirements for the internal platform — what the ELT needs to see, when, and in what format — and drive delivery against that roadmap
  • Partner closely with ELT members and their VP-level teams to ensure cross-functional alignment, surface issues early, and drive pace on shared initiatives

  • Management consulting background (MBB, Big 4, or equivalent) strongly preferred
  • Proven track record managing complex, cross-functional initiatives with senior executive stakeholders
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to synthesize complex situations into clear executive summaries and decision memos
  • Able to operate effectively through influence rather than direct authority in a matrixed environment

  • Familiarity with PE value creation frameworks, EBITDA improvement programs, or enterprise transformation operating models
