REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:

  • Proven ability to operate in ambiguous environments and drive structure where none exists
  • Strong track record of improving execution across multiple teams or functions

  • Ability to influence without direct authority and drive alignment at senior levels
  • Systems thinker with a bias toward action and measurable outcomes
