You will partner closely with cross-functional stakeholders to frame problems, develop hypotheses, evaluate tradeoffs, and translate findings into clear, actionable recommendations. 

The ideal candidate brings advanced analytical expertise and strong strategic thinking and is comfortable operating in ambiguous environments. They are motivated by solving complex problems with both strategic and operational implications, and are energized by ownership, impact, and influencing direction across teams rather than executing narrowly defined tasks.

• Lead efforts to identify, shape, and scale new service concepts that drive long-term customer engagement and business impact 
• Build exposure to multiple parts of the business, including Product, Operations, Growth Strategy, Finance, and Customer Insights, to drive enterprise-level outcomes 
• Own complex, cross-functional workstreams in a fast-paced environment with strong visibility to senior stakeholders 
• Engage in work that spans both strategic thinking and practical execution, with clear and measurable business impact 

You’re Our Ideal Candidate If You:

• Enjoy working in ambiguous environments and bringing structure to loosely defined problems 
• Are motivated by strategy work and want to shape recommendations, not just execute assigned tasks 
• Can frame problems, develop hypotheses, and structure analyses to answer complex questions 
• Think critically about customer needs, operational realities, and business tradeoffs, including cost, efficiency, and scalability 
• Are highly analytical and able to translate data and insights into clear, actionable recommendations 
• Are detail-oriented and comfortable diving into complex systems and processes 
• Take ownership of your work and can move initiatives forward with limited direction 
• Collaborate effectively and build strong relationships across functions 

• Bachelor’s degree (BA/BS) required; advanced degree preferred 
• 5+ years of experience in consulting, strategy, business operations, customer experience, service design, product operations, or a related field 
• Proven ability to lead complex, cross-functional initiatives from concept through execution 
• Strong experience structuring analyses, evaluating tradeoffs, and developing practical, data-informed recommendations with clear business impact 
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to develop clear, executive-ready presentations and narratives 
• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel, including modeling, scenario analysis, advanced formulas, and large dataset manipulation 
• Strong working knowledge of SQL for complex querying, data extraction, and validation 
• Experience with data visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI) to communicate insights effectively 
• Experience using Python or similar tools for data analysis, automation, or exploratory analysis 
• Strong understanding of end-to-end customer journey analytics, innovation metrics, and performance measurement frameworks 
• Experience applying innovation and design methodologies 
• Ability to synthesize qualitative insights and quantitative data into clear, actionable recommendations

• Experience with service innovation, concept development, pilot design, or incubation work
