About the role
The Project Lead, Strategic Planning and Operations, will own a critical portion of the rhythm of the business across three major categories: Business Planning, Strategic Operations, and Strategy. This role operates with significant autonomy, sets the approach for high-stakes cross-functional initiatives, and is trusted to represent the Office of the CEO directly with senior stakeholders.
What they're looking for
- Independently drive research and analysis on complex business trends, competitive dynamics, and market conditions to inform CEO- and board-level decision-making
- Synthesize ambiguous or incomplete data into clear strategic recommendations, proactively identifying risks and opportunities before they're raised
- Serve as a trusted thought partner to senior leaders, shaping strategic narratives rather than simply supporting them
- Own end-to-end delivery of the company's highest-priority, most complex initiatives, often spanning multiple departments, external stakeholders, and ambiguous scope
- Set project strategy, timelines, and success metrics with minimal oversight, anticipate roadblocks and course-correct proactively
- Act as a primary liaison across departments and with executive stakeholders, resolving cross-functional conflicts and driving alignment at the leadership level
