About the Role
The Business Operations team solves the Specialty Travel & Events team's most critical, emergent challenges across business, product, and operations. We are looking for a high-impact individual contributor to spearhead initiatives that drive business growth, process optimization, and system stability. You will also own the end-to-end management of critical enterprise tools. Leadership here is built on relational equity, integrated thinking, and data-backed execution. You will tackle unstructured, ambiguous problems like a creative science experiment—verifying root-cause data, optimizing workflows, and ensuring structural readiness before rolling out core updates.
Responsibilities
- Lead deep project scoping early to uncover root causes, document risks, and lock down parameters before execution to prevent scope creep.
- Drive multi-phased technical initiatives across international regions, establishing working groups and cross-functional alignment across teams.
- Audit legacy operational processes, map current vs. ideal state workflows, and author clear documentation so systems run smoothly post-launch.
- Query raw business data (via SQL, BI tools, and data warehouses) to diagnose operational bottlenecks, rigorously verify data integrity, and build compelling visual narratives for leadership.
- Build trusted partnerships across teams, navigating blockages with empathy to drive alignment across competing priorities without direct authority.
- Run controlled experiments against baselines to build repeatable execution patterns, maintaining radical transparency around both wins and operational failures.
Requirements
- 5+ years in business operations, program management, or technical project management within a fast-paced tech company.
- High data literacy with hands-on experience interrogating data sets, tracking data lineage, and utilizing BI tools or modern data warehouses (e.g., Snowflake, Tableau).
- A proactive problem-solver who defaults to clear ownership, definitive timelines, and thorough documentation over passive observation.
- Proven ability to spot cross-functional friction, build cross-team trust, and unblock operational drag.
- Proven track record of driving change management alongside complex technical implementations would be a bonus.
- Ideally a background in Product Operations or Business Systems in high-growth environments.
