Manager, Capability Enablement

ABOUT YOUR ROLE Act as a business partner and program manager for one of the Product Supply pillars: Plan, Create, Make (incl. Quality). You will identify and frame improvement opportunities with pillar stakeholders across brands, lead cross-functional projects from business case through implementation, and draw on the shared analyst pool based on project needs.

Opportunity framing: Define the problem, business owner, scope, baseline, value case, success measures, dependencies and required change to deliver the solution. Project leadership: Lead multiple improvement projects from diagnosis through design, testing, implementation and hand-over, with clear prioritization and at pace.

Solution design: Bring an end-to-end perspective across functions and brands; challenge status quo and design practical changes to process, decision rights, capability, data or technology. Stakeholder alignment: Facilitate decisions and manage trade-offs across functional leaders, brand partners, finance, digital technology and suppliers.

Value realization: Establish measurable outcomes, validate pilot results and partner with relevant stakeholders on benefit tracking where applicable. Embedding and hand-over: Ensure solutions are stable, documented and owned with clear handoff points; coordinate codification and scaling with Excellence & Standards and ongoing monitoring with Performance & Insights as relevant.

Team leadership and mentorship: Define project resource needs based on scope of project and available capacity from shared analyst pool, direct analysts or senior analysts deployed from the shared pool. Act as a mentor for assigned 2-3 analysts to provide continuity and support across projects and feed into regular talent conversations.
