Success in this role looks like: stakeholders trust the process, deadlines are met without sacrificing design quality, and the organization gets measurably better at collaborating across disciplines over time.
This is a highly cross-functional role best suited to someone who is equal parts organized operator and empathetic communicator; someone who can bring order to ambiguity without becoming a bottleneck, and who genuinely enjoys making other people's work better.
Responsibilities:
* Develop scalable, and repeatable processes that drive seamless cross-functional collaboration and handoffs between team
* Plan and manage fast-moving, multi-stakeholder programs; Build project plans, define milestones, track dependencies, and proactively surface and resolve risks

REQUIREMENTS:
* 3-5 years of experience
* Experience working directly with and understanding the needs of UX/CX disciplines (e.g., UX/CX design, UX research, strategy)
* Experience managing risks (e.g., operational, product, team health).
