This role serves as a trusted advisor to Foundation leadership, translates strategy into scalable operating models, leads complex cross-functional initiatives, and uses data and operational insight to improve decision quality, efficiency, transparency, and organizational resilience. The position exercises significant independent judgment and partners across Foundation teams, ECMC Group Shared Services, and external organizations to deliver sustainable solutions and measurable operational impact.

Systems and data leadership: Defines business requirements and leads improvements to financial and related systems; promotes data integrity, effective adoption, reporting discipline, and scalable technology-enabled processes.
Performance and continuous improvement: Establishes service levels, key performance indicators, and feedback mechanisms; analyzes operational data and stakeholder needs to prioritize and implement improvements that increase efficiency, accuracy, transparency, and user experience.
Policy and knowledge management: Sets standards for and oversees the development, maintenance, and communication of operational procedures, grantmaking policies, and documentation to support organizational record that includes consistency, compliance, continuity, and organizational learning.
Organizational enablement: Provides senior-level consultation, training, and change leadership to help employees and partners adopt systems, policies, and processes; builds operational capability and accountability across the Foundation.
