• Portfolio Value Definition & Benefits Realization
• Define clear value hypotheses, success metrics, and KPIs for MADTech initiatives at intake/approval, in partnership with product, finance, and analytics.
• Translate strategic objectives into measurable portfolio outcomes (e.g., revenue, margin, engagement, cost-efficiency, risk reduction).
• Maintain a live view of expected vs. realized value across the portfolio, surfacing where we are over- or under-delivering against the original business case.
• Identify underperforming bets and value leakage and recommend actions (double-down, pivot, repair, or exit) to the AVP and relevant decision forums.
• Portfolio Performance Reporting & Insights
• Build and maintain portfolio-level performance dashboards that consolidate initiative status, realized outcomes, and forward-looking projections across MADTech pillars and themes.
• Produce executive-ready performance narratives and packs for Portfolio Review, ManCom / SteerCo, and QBRs, highlighting progress, risks, trade-offs, and decision asks.
• Segment performance by pillar, horizon, customer segment, and initiative type to show where the portfolio is concentrated and where value is truly coming from.
• Standardize performance reporting templates and definitions (e.g., “committed vs. realized value”, “in-year vs. run-rate”) to ensure consistency across initiative owners.
• Governance & Decision Support
• Partner with Portfolio & Governance and Programs & Transformation leads to ensure performance insights directly inform prioritization, stage-gates, and stop/continue decisions.
• Provide structured inputs (value realization, benefit risk, scenario comparisons) into portfolio governance forums so decisions are grounded in data rather than anecdote.
• Maintain a single, trusted source of truth for portfolio performance, aligned with the initiative registry and portfolio taxonomies (pillars, themes, horizons, initiative types).
• Support definition and tracking of portfolio-level OKRs/KPIs that tie MADTech bets to broader New Business / GCash objectives.
• Data, Analytics & Tooling
• Partner with Analytics and Data & Decision Science to design simple, robust performance measurement frameworks and data pipelines for portfolio tracking.
• Define data requirements and quality standards for initiative owners (e.g., baseline, target, actuals, confidence levels, attribution assumptions).
• Co-own, with Portfolio & Governance and Programs & Transformation, the configuration of portfolio and program management tools (e.g., Smartsheet or equivalent) to capture performance data and generate dashboards efficiently.
• Run periodic data quality checks and coach initiative teams on improving their inputs (e.g., KPI definitions, benefit tracking).
• Stakeholder Management & Ways of Working
• Work closely with Product, Business Development, Operations, and Finance partners to align on value definitions, baselines, and benefit tracking plans before initiatives are approved.
• Facilitate working sessions and reviews with initiative owners to interpret performance trends, understand drivers, and agree on corrective actions.
• Support change management around new performance frameworks and tools (training, comms, feedback loops) to ensure adoption and stickiness across MADTech teams.
• Role-model disciplined, transparent communication — simplifying complex performance stories into clear messages for leadership and non-technical stakeholders.
  
  
  

Qualifications & Experience

• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Economics, Engineering, Management, Statistics, or related field required; postgraduate studies in analytics, finance, or strategy is an advantage.

• Demonstrated experience defining KPIs, building performance dashboards, and telling clear, executive-ready value stories from complex data.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, including comfort with data interpretation and basic financial modeling (e.g., revenue, margin, payback, NPV).
• High proficiency with productivity and collaboration tools (e.g., Google Workspace) and program / portfolio management tools (e.g., Smartsheet or equivalent).
