- Lead deep-dive market analysis on focus verticals such as Data Centers and adjacent high-growth infrastructure markets — sizing, segmentation, competitive dynamics, and demand signals.
- Build and maintain executive-grade dashboards and models (Power BI, Tableau,



advanced Excel) that leadership relies on for real-time decision-making.
- Establish data governance and reporting standards so insight generation scales beyond any one individual or team.

3. Program & Portfolio Execution

- Coordinate execution of the highest-priority global strategic initiatives, ensuring they stay on track, on budget, and aligned to leadership intent.
- Maintain a portfolio-level view of strategic projects using tools such as Smartsheet, tracking interdependencies, risks, and resourcing gaps across regions.
- Use Salesforce and other CRM/ERP data to connect market intelligence directly to commercial pipeline and account strategy.

4. Tools & Systems

- Advanced proficiency in Smartsheet, Salesforce, Power BI or Tableau, and Excel; working familiarity with SAP or equivalent ERP systems.
- Comfort building lightweight automations, templates, and self-serve dashboards that reduce manual reporting burden across the team.

Required Qualifications & Experience

- 8–10 years of experience in business/data analytics, management consulting, or global program management, ideally within a large industrial, engineering, or manufacturing organization.
- Strong quantitative and analytical skill set,



with hands-on experience in data analysis and visualization tools (Power BI, Tableau, advanced Excel).
- Prior exposure to Data Center, Infrastructure, Industrial Automation, or related B2B verticals is strongly preferred.
- Hands-on experience with Smartsheet, Salesforce, and/or SAP or equivalent ERP/CRM platforms.
- Bachelor’s degree in engineering, Business, Economics, or a related field; MBA or equivalent advanced degree strongly preferred.

Key Competencies

- Trusted, discreet, and comfortable operating close to senior leadership on sensitive matters
- Analytically rigorous with a strong data-first instinct, but equally strong on execution and follow-through
- Able to move fluidly between 30,000-foot strategy and detailed data work
- High ownership and self-direction; thrives with broad, loosely defined mandates
- Strong influence-without-authority skills across a global matrix organization

Success in the First 6 Months Looks Like

- A functioning leadership operating rhythm (QBRs, strategy reviews) that the leadership team relies on
- A live, trusted dashboard suite covering the Data Center vertical and 1–2 other focus areas
- Demonstrated ability to turn a messy, ambiguous strategic question into a clear, data-backed recommendation within days, not weeks

What We Offer

- Unusually proximity to senior leadership and enterprise-level decision-making
- A role that blends strategy, analytics, and execution rather than confining you to one lane
- Competitive compensation, benefits, and a explicit path to broader strategic role
