About the Role

As a Senior Associate of Process Management within the ECP Product Strategy & Operations (PSO), you will be aligned to the Product Operations function, which is one of three functional teams within PSO. The mission of the ECP Product Operations team is to optimize ECP’s Product Development lifecycle, foster collaboration - both across ECP product domains and Line-of-Business partners, and focus product managers on delivering transformative customer experiences. There are four distinct capabilities within ECP Product Operations in service of that mission. Those are:

• Product Planning & Governance Design the mechanisms and manage the rhythms to drive effective long-range and annual planning and monthly governance routines

• Portfolio Management Create transparency into how resources are being allocated across the ECP portfolio and refine processes for managing inbound intent

• Data & Tooling Define best practices for Enterprise-tools (e.g., JIRA, Quicksight) and build a reporting suite to support team health and delivery

• Budgeting & Labor Manage the monthly budgeting routine, including the mechanisms for triaging and adjudicating financial risks and opportunities

The Senior Associate of Process Management will be specifically focused on the Product Planning & Governance and Portfolio Management capabilities.

Key Responsibilities
