• Track execution rigorously and flag risks, dependencies, and bottlenecks early.
• Prepare high-quality briefs, dashboards, and narratives for leadership and key stakeholder forums.
• Establish and run operating cadences (OKRs, QBRs, leadership reviews).
• Drive alignment across teams on targets, performance tracking, and key initiatives.
• Improve operational efficiency through structured processes and reporting frameworks.
• Identify systemic issues, analyze data, and recommend actionable solutions.

• Experience driving business review cadences such as WBRs and QBRs.
• High ownership mindset with the ability to operate independently under ambiguity.
• Ability to influence stakeholders without direct authority and drive cross-functional alignment.
• Experience in fintech, SaaS, B2B, or high-growth startup environments is preferred.
• MBA or equivalent strategic/analytical exposure.
