• Establishing and governing project management standards across the LEO function, overseeing a pool of contracted project managers who support learning delivery — ensuring consistent methodology, quality, and on-time execution across the portfolio
• Managing the day-to-day operational infrastructure of the LEO function — including budget stewardship, resource tracking, operational reporting, and process compliance — ensuring the function runs efficiently and within established parameters
• Leading or supporting strategic operational initiatives undertaken by LEO — including process redesign, operating model improvements, and cross-functional projects — from planning through execution and measurement
• Developing and maintaining dashboards and reporting frameworks that provide LEO leadership and key stakeholders with timely, accurate visibility into functional performance, delivery status, and resource deployment
• Contributing to vendor management activities related to contracted project management resources, including onboarding, performance monitoring, and contract compliance
• Partnering with the Tech & Data Lead (when needed) to ensure operational and portfolio data flows are accurate and integrated across LEO systems
• Providing ad hoc operational analysis and reporting in support of leadership requests and business reviews

• Operational Excellence: Ability to design, implement, and continuously improve operational processes — including budget stewardship, resource tracking, and compliance — that keep a complex function running efficiently
• Strategic Thinking: Ability to identify operational gaps and lead initiatives that meaningfully improve how the function works — not just maintain existing processes but evolve them
• Data Fluency: Comfort working with operational and portfolio data — building reports, identifying trends, and communicating insights clearly to both operational and senior leadership audiences
