  • Effectively communicate priorities and goals, rallying functional leaders around an aligned strategy, while proactively resolving and adjusting priorities to meet key objectives.
  • Lead and guide key internal and external stakeholders across publishing, including Marketing, Sales, and PR, and central publishing groups.
  • Develop and embed the organizational model by setting up core processes, organizational design, defining key capabilities, and more to ensure the business is run smoothly.

  • Ability to navigate the complexities of multiple stakeholders.
  • Strong interpersonal skills and empathy to build trusted relationships across the organization.
  • Strong analytical and conceptual problem-solving skills to simplify and resolve complex issues.
