Facebook is seeking a high caliber, analytical, process & detail oriented individual to drive global process design, improvement and tool implementation projects within the Small & Medium Business Sales Group. The role will be a part of the Business Planning & Operations team, an internal project management function that advises management on overall group strategy and operational execution. The primary objectives of this role are to (a) assess the efficiency of our Operating Model, (b) identify, draft and implement process/tool improvements and (c) own operational processes globally with the intent of continuous improvement to the way the business operates. The person will be close to the organization’s global strategy and will be tasked with pro-actively identifying future needs to ensure the business is operationally ready as strategy evolves and the business grows and changes. The role partners deeply with stakeholders inside the Small & Medium Business Sales group and cross-functional partners (including Engineering, Business Intelligence, Finance). The ideal candidate will be just as comfortable running independent in-depth analysis of our existing Operating Model as well as clearly communicating, presenting and project managing proposed improvements. There will be an expectation for the candidate to be self-starting and to architect processes in a move-fast environment where done is better than perfect. The candidate should expect to work in a highly ambiguous environment where scope of responsibility and ownership is self-driven and performance is measured on the impact they have had on our Operational effectiveness. An eagerness and eye for automation and efficiency paired with the ability to document and translate comprehensive business requirements into tactical actions for cross-functional teams, along with the ability to quickly build relationships with people of varying personality types and excellent communication tactics are all key to success in this role.
