Job Description:

  • Establish disciplined intake, prioritization, and capacity planning across projects and operational work.
  • Coordinate cross-functional programs spanning planning, data products, and Finance applications.
  • Translate delivery trends and team feedback into recommendations on resource allocation, sequencing, and sustainable workload.
  • Surface risks and tradeoffs early, presenting leadership with actionable options.
  • Improve delivery practices, release readiness, and handoffs without unnecessary bureaucracy.
  • Required qualifications:

  • Experience leading cross-functional technical programs involving data, enterprise systems, or business applications.
  • Hands-on Jira management and experience serving as a Scrum Master.
  • Exceptional organization and attention to detail, with clear executive and team communication.
  • Ability to manage dependencies and influence decisions across teams without direct authority.
  • Experience using operational insights to improve capacity planning, delivery effectiveness, and team health.
  • Preferred qualifications:

  • Experience with Finance technology, planning platforms, or data engineering teams.
  • Experience coordinating implementation partners and shared enterprise dependencies.
  • Experience building scalable operating practices in a lean, high-growth organization.
