A day in the life
Driving parity across marketplaces, standardization and centralized development of capabilities are the guiding principles to scale the support non-linearly to newer scope and marketplaces. The incumbent is staffed with a team of ~20 members spread across India (Blr, Hyd), Dubai and Mexico locations. The incumbent needs to decide right mix of job roles for the scope (currently has 4 job roles – BA, BI Engineer, BI Manager, BA Manager) and right locations considering HC costs and outcomes. The incumbent should actively provide career choice opportunities in line with the emerging aspirations of team members to have diverse exposure to analytics technologies and laterally move members to roles with high technical complexity (e.g., BA -> BIE).

Given wide number of stakeholders, incumbent should balance their needs while maintaining work-life harmony of team members, should drive a culture of celebrating wins (small and large) and recognition, and foster strong collaboration across members [LP: Hire and Develop, Strive to be earth’s best employer].
