Role SummaryThe Sr. Lead, Service Aftermarket Revenue Strategy role is a central connector across teams, bringing the organization, coordination, and prioritization needed to keep many moving pieces aligned toward the same outcome. This is an individual contributor role: you'll need to flex comfortably between enabling others and diving into the work directly, acting with urgency for progress against the objective either way. Oftentimes, execution sits with cross-functional teams, so the ability to influence outcomes without direct authority is critical.
The role is two-fold:
- Oversee the big picture strategy of the Service aftermarket revenue (~80% of the role):
- Drive and own the tools for tracking revenue progress in aggregate to steer the multi-year direction.
- Enable and support cross-functional initiative owners through reviews or analyses to ensure consistency of rigor and approach.
- Own or help incubate early-stage revenue initiatives while a formal business owner is being identified.
- Provide general leadership support across the broader Service Strategy & Business Insights organization (~20% of the role).
