An analytical, detail-oriented operator who is comfortable working across teams without direct authority. Strong hands-on experience with Excel (advanced lookups, pivots, ad-hoc analysis), SQL and KQL is essential, because the contractor builds the analysis themselves.

Familiarity with execution ecosystem, including Partner Center, Cayman, MLC and MLC 2.0, is strongly preferred..

• Experience managing complex cross-functional processes with multiple stakeholders, dependencies and deadlines, owning execution from intake through delivery.
• Proven ability to execute high-volume operational workflows while maintaining quality and meeting deadlines.
• A self-driven problem solver who identifies risk, drives accountability, and does not need to be managed task by task.

Core skills

• Strong program management and organizational skills.
• Data-driven mindset, using Excel, reporting tools and dashboards to track progress and identify issues.
• Excellent written and verbal communication.

Ideal backgrounds

• Large-enterprise PM, PMO, operations, commerce or business operations experience.
• Launch management, region introduction or service onboarding experience.
• Consulting or project management backgrounds with a strong execution focus

Nice-to-Have Qualifications

• PMI or PMP certification.
• Experience with operational tooling systems used for complex execution processes, understanding system behaviors and potential points of failure.
• Prior experience within a large-scale technology environment.
