• Design analysis frameworks and methodologies to standardize and enable junior team members' work.

• Project & Stakeholder Management


• Independently undertake core business project operations, ensuring a clear link between project execution and overall business objectives.


• Factor in variables that could impact the project, planning for preventive or mitigation measures, and leveraging/optimizing given and limited resources.


• Manage cross-function alignment with multiple stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle.


• Effectively communicate with and manage multiple stakeholders, influencing expectations, goals, and decisions at the senior levels of the organization.

• People Management & Development


• Efficiently allocate work to team members and establish a fluent daily operation mechanism for your team (official or feature team).


• Provide direct coaching and advice on growth and professional development to your team members.


• Actively work to help team members grow their experience and improve their professional capabilities to drive superior business results.

• Communication & Collaboration


• Demonstrate strong storytelling and presentation skills, capable of communicating and reporting key findings and proposals at a regional or higher level.


• Write well-structured, easy-to-read reports that effectively communicate key messages to diverse audiences.

• Put yourself in someone's shoes when solving problems, effectively taking into account the needs and constraints of other departments.


• Manage conflict by adopting different approaches to minimize its impact on inter-team collaboration.

• 5+ years of experience in Operations, Strategy, or a related analytical/managerial role, with a progression in responsibility.
