  • Deep expertise in service strategy, process design (ex. Lean, Six Sigma), and leveraging predictive analytics and emerging technologies (GenAI)
  • Exceptional communicator with a consultative, cross-functional approach and experience working across regions and time zones
  • Comfortable navigating high-growth ambiguity, fast decision-making and resource allocation in evolving markets
  • Extensive domestic and international travel required

Preferred Qualifications:
