• Technical Expertise: Develop a strong understanding of subscriber balances and the technical infrastructure that underlies subscriber data.
• Project Management: Manage project planning and schedules and oversee cross-functional delivery to ensure readiness for significant business events.
• Process Improvement: Drive alignment across Data, Business Operations, and Finance through the development of strong communication processes and operational playbooks.

Preferred Qualifications

• Statistical Knowledge: Understanding of statistical concepts such as hypothesis testing, regression analysis, and predictive modeling.


• Advanced Education: Postgraduate degree in a relevant discipline.
