The Role

As the Chief of Staff for Core Experience Product Management, you will act as a true extension of the Executive Director – helping shape strategy, drive execution, and ensure the organization operates with clarity, focus, and momentum. This is a highly visible, high-impact role at the center of product leadership, requiring strong judgment, discretion, and the ability to move seamlessly between strategic thinking and tactical execution.

You will partner closely with senior leaders to align priorities, translate strategy into action, and keep complex initiatives moving forward. From owning critical operating rhythms to preparing executive-ready communications and briefing materials, you will help ensure the organization is set up for success. Given the volume and importance of written and verbal communications – often crafted on behalf of senior leadership – exceptional communication skills and attention to detail are essential.

• Partner directly with the Executive Director of Product Management for Core Experiences to support day-to-day operations, long-range planning, staff meetings, and special initiatives
• Own and run Core Experience Strategy and Execution meetings and the Vehicle Product Management UI Review – driving agendas, tracking outcomes, and ensuring clear ownership and follow-through
• Establish, refine, and continuously improve operating processes that enable efficient decision-making and predictable execution
• Guide information flow across leadership to ensure the right data, context, and insights are available at the right time
• Develop, maintain, and evolve a multi-year business strategy aligned to enterprise priorities
• Synthesize complex initiatives into clear business cases, including deliverables, benefits, risks, and timelines
• Track execution against operating plans and proactively surface risks, dependencies, and gaps
• Analyze and report on key business, financial, and people metrics to inform leadership decisions
• Lead high-impact, cross-functional initiatives spanning strategy, operations, and culture
• Create and deliver executive-ready presentations and briefing materials
• Anticipate challenges, connect dots across teams, and solve problems before they escalate
• Plan and coordinate all aspects of organization-wide, all-people meetings
• Take on stretch Product Management responsibilities as needed to fill gaps or support short-term, mission-critical efforts

Your Skills & Abilities

• Bachelor's degree preferred
• Proven ability to communicate effectively and build trusted partnerships with senior leaders and executives
• Comfortable operating in fast-paced, ambiguous environments with a high degree of autonomy
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to translate data into insights and recommendations
• Demonstrated success navigating complex, matrixed organizations and driving outcomes through influence
• High integrity, sound judgment, and a strong sense of confidentiality
• Exceptional organizational skills and meticulous attention to detail
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to tailor messaging for executive audiences
• Willingness to travel as needed (less than 20%)

What Will Give You a Competitive Edge

• MBA or Master's degree in a related field
• Exceptional executive communication skills, including developing and delivering high-stakes presentations
