Your Role

We’re hiring a Strategy and Operations Analyst as part of the Builders Program. You’ll support the Head of Strategy & Operations on initiatives that span People and Care, grounded in how teams, functions, and processes actually run day to day.

You’ll help turn leadership priorities into clarity: which workflows matter, what to measure, how to observe performance, and where processes can work better for operators and customers.

This is a hands-on role. You’ll map workflows, shape metric definitions with stakeholders, help specify reporting and dashboards with data partners, and document improvements that stick.

The work is cross-functional: you’ll learn alongside operators, analytics, and business stakeholders while maintaining discretion on sensitive topics.

Your Responsibilities

• Map end-to-end workflows in People and Care functions, including ownership, handoffs, decisions, and friction points.
• Partner with stakeholders to define metrics and data points so leadership can track progress and optimize for critical business operations outcomes.
• Support the design of dashboards and operational reporting so leaders can review performance on a clear, consistent cadence.
• Identify opportunities to simplify or strengthen processes (roles, SLAs, escalations, documentation) and help socialize practical changes.
• Prepare concise analyses, summaries, and readouts that help teams decide faster.
• Support ad hoc assignments that advance portfolio visibility and operating rhythm across Strategy & Operations.
