The MBO Operations & Analytics Manager is a newly created role within a team that is being rebuilt to transform the MBO process within SEA. This role owns the "digital MBO engine" — the systems, data, and automation that power the enterprise MBO process. This role splits focus roughly evenly between analytics/automation and day-to-day operations: building and maintaining automated validation, data integration, scoring, and dashboarding capabilities, while also running exception-based workflow management and self‑service support for business owners and executives across SEA's lines of business.

Role And Responsibilities

Digital MBO Engine & Automation

• Build and maintain automated validation of MBO data submissions, reducing manual review and error risk across business units.
• Own data integration across source systems (e.g., Varicent) and downstream scorecards, ensuring consistent, reliable data flows for target‑setting and evaluation cycles.
• Develop and maintain the scoring engine used to calculate MBO results, and build dashboards that give leadership and business owners real‑time visibility into performance.
• Build and expand self‑service capabilities so executives and business owners can access standard reports, forms, and status updates without manual intervention from the MBO team.
• Evaluate, prototype, and implement AI‑enabled approaches to drive MBO administration efficiency.

MBO Operations

• Manage day‑to‑day MBO system setup and maintenance, including scorecard configuration and ongoing administration.
• Support actual collection and score calculation for quarterly and semi‑annual evaluation cycles, coordinating with business owners across LOBs to ensure timely, accurate submissions.
• Respond to user and system administration needs (corrections, access issues, technical troubleshooting) with an eye toward reducing recurring requests through better tooling.
• Support the Leadership Committee evaluation cycle by ensuring data, scoring, and dashboards are ready and accurate ahead of key reviews.

Skills And Qualifications

Education

• Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, Data Analytics, or a related field

Experience

• 6+ years of experience in business/data analytics, systems administration, financial planning & analysis, or operations roles involving performance management, incentive, or scorecard systems.
• Hands‑on experience with data integration, validation, and dashboarding tools (e.g., Excel/Power BI/Tableau-class tools; experience with Varicent or similar incentive/performance management platforms a strong plus).
• Experience building AI‑assisted tools or portals for internal business processes (e.g., using low‑code/AI platforms such as Gemini, Codex, or similar).
• Strong process orientation with the ability to design workflows and exception‑management logic, not just execute existing ones.
• Effective communicator able to work directly with business owners on data and process issues.
