Full Job Description
Job Description

Reports to the Hertz Chief of Staff and sits within the Office of the CEO.

Enterprise Strategy & Execution Leads are the operators who make this transformation real. They sit at the center of the company's most important decisions and initiatives, owning the end-to-end orchestration of enterprise-critical work that directly impacts Hetz's strategy and financial performance.

This is a high-visibility role partnering directly with senior executives across the company.

This role is not traditional corporate strategy or a traditional PMO. It's both; deciding what matters most and making sure it gets done.

What You Will Do

Accelerate the Transformation - lead execution across enterprise-critical initiatives including:
  • Fleet optimization and cost discipline
  • Digital customer experience transformation
  • Technology simplification and modernization
  • Expansion of off-airport and mobility businesses
  • Operational efficiency and utilization improvements
  • New revenue opportunities across the Hertz platform


Lead Enterprise Initiatives
  • Own execution of high-impact initiatives across operations, technology, fleet, pricing, or customer experience
  • Align cross-functional teams and maintain forward momentum
  • Resolve blockers and manage interdependencies across functions
  • Drive consistent execution discipline


Reinforce Execution Discipline
  • Define scope, milestones, KPIs, and clear success metrics
  • Maintain roadmaps, dependency management, and portfolio visibility
  • Monitor objective health, risks, and benefits realization
  • Embed delivery standards and change readiness to sustain impact


Accelerate Decision-Making
  • Frame tradeoffs and decisions clearly for leadership
  • Surface risks and capacity constraints early
  • Ensure timely decisions so execution does not stall


Connect Strategy to Measurable Impact
  • Translate enterprise priorities into actionable plans
  • Ensure initiatives deliver measurable value - cost savings, revenue growth, utilization gains, speed


Build Future Leaders
  • Mentor high-potential talent across enterprise initiatives
  • Develop future operators through exposure to strategy, execution, and financial accountability


What Success Looks Like
  • Enterprise initiatives move faster, deliver measurable value, and produce fewer surprises
  • Cross-functional teams remain aligned and focused
  • Risks and interdependencies are surfaced early
  • Leadership trusts the data, governance, and decision framing


What We're Looking For
  • 7-12 years of experience in strategy, operations, consulting, or program leadership
  • Demonstrated ability to lead complex, cross-functional initiatives end-to-end
  • Strong analytical and financial modeling skills
  • Experience influencing senior stakeholders and driving alignment
  • Ability to operate effectively in ambiguity and high-visibility environments
  • Comfort leveraging AI, automation, and advanced analytics to improve speed and impact
  • Excellent structured thinking and problem-solving skills
  • Bias toward action and measurable outcomes


Preferred
  • Former tier-one consulting engagement manager, or equivalent
  • Experience driving operational improvement, cost transformation, or digital modernization
  • Exposure to capital allocation or performance improvement programs
  • Track record of quantifiable financial impact (EBITDA, cost savings, revenue lift)
  • Experience managing delivery in matrixed or asset-heavy environments
  • Background in mobility, travel, logistics, marketplaces, or technology-enabled services


Mindset
  • Intellectually rigorous and curious - you seek root causes and systems-level clarity
  • Ownership mentality - you stay with problems through value realization
  • Bias toward action with urgency
  • Calm and resilient under pressure and cross-functional friction
  • Structured yet adaptable in ambiguity
  • Financially accountable - you think in measurable business impact
  • Strong operator instinct - you enjoy making complex systems work better
  • Influence without authority - credibility over hierarchy
  • Leverage-driven - you use AI and analytics as force multipliers
  • High learning velocity and commitment to continuous improvement
