Join the Consumer and Community Banking (CCB) Product & Experience and Technology (PXT) organization as we continue a multi-year journey to refine our Product Operating Model, transitioning from a highly standardized, waterfall project-based operating model into a decentralized Agile model with over 100 autonomous products. Our largest priorities impact multiple products, portfolios, and lines of business which require more consistent ways of working across the organization. We are building a team to enable these new ways of working at scale by focusing on the adoption of necessary processes and supporting tooling solutions, in addition to leading the execution against these priorities in some cases.
As Product Operations Enablement Director – Executive Director, within the CCB Product Operations organization, you will be responsible for leading an enablement function to either teach the organization how to execute new scaled ways of working or, in some cases, lead the execution to facilitate the delivery of our largest strategic priorities. You will be directly responsible for multiple teams of coaches and subject matter experts, each aligned to strategic priorities and portfolios.
You will be a visionary leader of character, with a proven ability to manage leaders, influence executive stakeholders, and align diverse groups toward common goals. Additionally, you will have experience driving cultural and behavioral change at scale by introducing new ways of working, coaching large organizations through adoption, and inspiring confidence in new changes through facilitation. You have an understanding of a strategic vision, advanced operational expertise, and a customer-centric approach to meet teams where they are operationally and guide them towards continuous improvement as they deliver the organization’s strategic goals.
