Verizon is a global leader in technology and communications, relentlessly innovating to transform how we connect and drive positive change through enhanced customer-centricity, collaboration, and innovation.

This includes managing the end-to-end demand process, leading strategic and operational transformation initiatives, and developing detailed financial models to support strategic planning and investment decisions.

Your role will also involve institutionalizing operational reviews, matrix management, and effective planning and governance processes to ensure the achievement of the VGS OKR dashboard. You will drive process excellence by creating a backlog of improvement opportunities, pursuing at least two in 2025, and leading re-engineering efforts with S&T process experts to elevate team impact and ensure seamless customer and employee experiences. You'll champion data-driven decision-making, ensuring analytics lead to continuous business improvements and more profitable growth.
