We're building a stronger, more connected Services Delivery organization at Adobe, and we're looking for a Strategy & Operations Lead to help us get there. In this role, we work together to understand complex problems, improve how our teams operate, and develop clearer ways for people to make decisions.

Rather than focusing on reporting, we focus on how the business works end‑to‑end—from planning and forecasting to delivery efficiency and scaling global operations. We partner closely with leaders across the organization to bring clarity, structure, and thoughtful problem‑solving to big questions.

This role is a great fit for someone who enjoys moving between high‑level strategy and hands‑on analysis, and who wants to help build how a growing services organization works.

• We work with Services Delivery leaders to turn broad questions into clear problem statements and practical plans
• We look at how systems, tools, incentives, and behaviors connect across the services lifecycle, with attention on root causes—not symptoms—to build solutions that last
• We take ownership from idea to outcome, working with teams across the business

• We build simple, clear frameworks to compare scenarios and understand tradeoffs, translating business questions into analytical requirements that teams can build from
• We partner with analytics groups and technical departments to build models and outputs that support confident decisions
• We help identify where advanced analytics and machine learning can improve forecasting and delivery

• We help develop the metrics, routines, decision processes, and broader improvements that guide a growing organization as we simplify, standardize, and scale
• We work closely with Delivery, Finance, and Regional Operations to stay aligned on priorities

• We define what dashboards and reporting should answer, ensure they meet the needs of different audiences, and balance accuracy with practicality when a directional answer is enough to move forward

• 7+ years in management consulting, strategy & operations, business operations, or similar roles
• Experience solving complex problems that span multiple teams
• Experience interacting with senior and executive leaders

• Strong Excel skills, including modeling and scenario analysis
• Experience using BI tools (Power BI preferred)
• Experienced in partnering with data and engineering teams

• You think in systems and consider second and third‑order effects
• You communicate clearly and make complex topics easy to understand
• You're comfortable with ambiguity and can define the right work without much direction
• You're willing to question assumptions in a thoughtful, constructive way

• Experience in Professional Services, consulting, or subscription‑based businesses
• Familiarity with forecasting models, scoring approaches, and model validation
• Experience collaborating with data science teams on analytics or machine learning projects
