· Demonstrated end-to-end ownership of solutions, products, or programs from concept through launch and ongoing performance.
· Proven cross-functional leader who can align, influence, and motivate teams without direct authority.
· Proactive, self-directed operator with a track record of building plans, driving accountability, and moving work forward in ambiguous environments.
· Strong business acumen, including the ability to build business cases, interpret financial and performance data, and make data-informed decisions.
· Strong problem-solving skills; able to break down complex issues and drive to practical solutions.
· Excellent written and verbal communication, including executive-level presentations
