Job Summary

As a Sr Business Insights Consultant focused on Support, you will play a pivotal role in driving our Support Transformation with high visibility across the organization.

You will partner with senior leaders and cross-functional teams to translate data into strategic, actionable insights that shape business priorities and elevate customer outcomes.

This role calls for a hands-on, strategic leader who can design, influence, and execute high-impact initiatives end-to-end.

You will excel in a dynamic, fast-moving environment that values innovation, problem-solving, and continuous improvement.

Your work will directly inform company strategy and deliver impact at scale.

Core Responsibilities:

• Apply first-principles thinking to deconstruct complex problems and design pragmatic, high-impact solutions that advance business priorities

• Synthesize diverse data sources into actionable insights that enable clear, confident decision-making at all levels of the organization

• Deliver concise, compelling materials for executive audiences, including business cases and strategic plans that drive measurable outcomes

• Own and direct the global Case Elimination Program. Perform advanced qualitative and quantitative analyses on support case data to isolate root causes, partnering directly with R&D and Engineering leaders to prioritize product enhancements that eliminate customer friction and support case volume at the source.

• Aged Backlog Reduction & Serviceability Strategy: Lead strategic initiatives focused on Aged Case Backlog Reduction. Collaborate with Engineering to conduct deep-dive technical investigations into complex aging cases (>30 days), identifying systemic friction points (such as lab reproduction blockers or data collection failures) and driving targeted product serviceability enhancements to accelerate Time-to-Resolution (TTR).

• Executive Stakeholder Management & Engineering Interlock: Serve as the primary strategic liaison between Support Operations, Engineering, and executive leadership. Synthesize complex technical data into high-impact recommendations, chairing interlock forums to align cross-functional priorities with broader company goals.

• End-to-End Strategic Ownership & Agility: Demonstrate full end-to-end accountability for multi-theater operational programs, from initial problem identification through technical solution architecture and executive roll-out. Rapidly adapt strategies to evolving business priorities while maintaining strict performance governance.

Qualifications

• Demonstrated experience acting as an operational catalyst who drives end-to-end initiative execution rather than delivering passive analytical reports.

• Tech & Support Operations Expertise: Background in enterprise technical support operations, product serviceability programs, or software/hardware engineering interlocks.

• Advanced Data & Root-Cause Analysis: High proficiency in synthesizing complex quantitative/qualitative datasets to pinpoint systemic operational bottlenecks.

• First-Principles Problem Solving: Ability to structure complex, ambiguous operational problems into actionable, phased improvement roadmaps.

• Metrics & Governance Design: Hands-on experience developing operational KPIs, governance frameworks, and tracking mechanisms for large-scale programs.

• Cross-Functional Leadership & Orchestration: Ability to mobilize, align, and direct cross-functional teams (Engineering, R&D, Operations) without direct authority.

• Executive Communication: Skilled in translating technical, multi-layered data into polished, executive-ready presentations and business proposals.

• Agility & Drive: Comfort operating in fast-moving, high-visibility environments with evolving business priorities.

Preferred Qualification:

• 3–6+ years of management consulting experience at a top-tier strategy firm or a recognized operational boutique firm.
