- Drive strategic alignment toward customer-centric as-a-Service (aaS) standards company-wide, ensuring adherence to industry best practices and fueling market leadership.
- Present complex, data-driven insights to senior leadership, enabling informed decision-making and strategic alignment.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including (but not limited to) product, sales, Channel, engineering, finance, and IT, to ensure seamless integration and execution of aaS initiatives.
- Stay ahead of industry trends in SaaS, IaaS, PaaS, and Flex Solutions, applying these insights to strengthen the company's market position.
- Influence cross-divisional teams without managing direct reports, ensuring alignment on as-a-Service (aaS) goals and standards while driving impactful decisions.
Education and Experience Required:
Typically, 8+ years total experience in strategy, planning, operations, finance, or related functional area. Advanced university degree preferred (e.g., MBA) or demonstrable equivalent experience.
Knowledge and Skills:
- aaS Standards Expertise: Proven ability to establish customer-centric aaS standards, guiding company-wide adoption of strategic practices to unlock new revenue streams and drive market leadership.
- M&A Integration & Innovation: Experience leading and supporting M&A integrations focused on aaS offerings, ensuring seamless onboarding and scaling of new capabilities.
- System Integration Expertise: In-depth knowledge of integrating subscription management systems like SAP BRIM, S/4HANA, CRM platforms (e.g., Salesforce), and analytics platforms.
- Business and Technical Acumen: Ability to bridge business and technical requirements, ensuring processes and systems are aligned with the company’s growth strategy.
