  • Coordinate contributors and stakeholders across Client Services, Revenue Operations, CRM, Billing, Sales, and Marketing as applicable.
  • Monitor project risks, dependencies, and deliverables to ensure successful execution.

  • Delivery and execution of the standardization backlog.
  • Supporting process documentation and knowledge management efforts.
  • Managing standardization initiatives across all impacted teams and functions.
  • Establishing KPI baselines and measuring improvement outcomes.
  • Ensuring initiatives are completed on schedule and aligned with organizational priorities.

Decision Authority

The Operations & Standardization Analyst may:

  • Recommend process standardization priorities and sequencing.
  • Prototype and pilot process improvement solutions.
  • Coordinate cross-functional contributors to meet agreed project milestones.
  • Recommend process and operational improvements based on data and analysis.

  • Reduction in process variance and exceptions.
  • Measurable efficiency and productivity improvements.
  • KPI baseline coverage and reporting accuracy.
  • On-time delivery of standardization projects and initiatives.
