Role Description

The Executive Business Partner serves as a trusted operational and administrative partner to the General Manager of Managed Cloud, helping ensure business priorities stay on track, leadership commitments are met, and the GM and leadership team operate effectively.

This is an individual contributor role requiring sound judgment, initiative, discretion, and the ability to drive accountability and results through influence rather than direct authority.

• Demonstrated experience coordinating projects, tracking deliverables, and managing action items across multiple stakeholders.

• Experience coordinating executive meetings, business reviews, presentations, and reporting materials.
• Demonstrated ability to manage complex calendars, coordinate multiple schedules, and arrange domestic business travel.
• Exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail, with the ability to balance competing priorities and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to communicate directly and professionally with senior leaders.
• High degree of discretion, integrity, and judgment when handling confidential business, financial, and personnel information.
• Proficiency with Google Workspace, Slack, and project or work management tools such as Asana, Monday.com, Linear, or Jira.

Requirements

• Analyze business priorities, project progress, operational risks, dependencies, and performance trends to identify issues that may affect Managed Cloud’s business objectives.
• Evaluate alternative approaches to resolving operational challenges and recommend solutions to the GM and leadership team, considering business impact, urgency, resource requirements, and competing priorities.
• Exercise independent judgment in determining appropriate follow-up, coordination, and escalation strategies within established responsibilities.
• Synthesize information from multiple sources and provide clear, actionable recommendations to support GM and leadership decision-making.
• Support business planning and operational improvements by identifying execution gaps, evaluating alternative approaches, and recommending adjustments to priorities, processes, or timelines.

Benefits

• Centralized accountability: Establish and implement a centralized tracker covering leadership goals, projects, owners, and due dates.
• Action-item completion: Ensure leadership commitments and action items are consistently documented, tracked, and followed up on.
• Effective leadership meetings: Distribute meeting agendas at least 24 hours in advance and provide timely notes following key meetings.
• GM effectiveness: Partner with the GM to increase time dedicated to customers, partners, people, and growth.
• End-to-end coordination: Ensure scheduling, travel, and related logistical arrangements for the GM and leadership team are coordinated accurately.
• Proactive communication and risk management: Identify and communicate risks, delays, competing priorities, and decisions requiring attention early enough to support timely resolution.
• Operational improvement: Identify and recommend process improvements that strengthen leadership accountability, reporting, communication, and business execution.
