The team reports directly to the Chief Product and Technology Officer (CPTO), and uses strategic analysis, creative storytelling, and operational rigor to surface insights, frame trade-offs, and guide decision-making for Disney’s senior leadership.

+ Experience defining and measuring OKRs, KPIs, or other comparable success metrics.

+ Proactive “self-starter” with a passion for driving outcomes and a bias for action. Proven ability to manage multiple workstreams simultaneously with high attention to detail, while also knowing when to zoom out and have executive-level discussions.

+ Team-oriented culture carrier with a proclivity towards cross-functional collaboration.

+ Embrace of dynamic, fast-paced, and matrixed organizations with significant executive visibility; comfortable influencing in the absence of direct control.
