    2. Develop strong working relationships with the executive team and other important stakeholders, while avoiding adding a layer of complexity or 'organizational noise'.
    3. Ensure Strategy Analytics is in place to enable insights and data that help build defensible, distinctive strategies to win in the complex tech market.
    4. Identify critical issues and prioritize them. Gather, process, synthesize, and present contextualized information to support decision-making.
    5. Engage proactively with the executive team to connect the dots on important operational and organizational questions, including gaps and barriers that must be addressed to move the business forward.
    6. Support the Co-President & Chief Business Officer on meetings, including preparation, sending out agendas and documents, taking and distributing minutes, and ensuring that all important action items are clear and follow-up meetings set.
  2. Project Leadership
    1. Lead and manage strategic and ad hoc projects and initiatives set by the Co-President & Chief Business Officer from conceptualization through research, analysis, conclusions, and final recommendations, bringing together internal stakeholders as necessary and ensuring high-quality results on deadline.
    2. Establish, monitor, and advise on a dynamic inventory of critical-path projects in which the Co-President & Chief Business Officer is especially interested or needs to be involved, with a focus on follow-through.
    3. Establish and drive a process so that important issues are surfaced, cataloged, monitored, assigned, and addressed efficiently and effectively to completion.
  3. Communications
    1. Support the Co-President & Chief Business Officer in outlining memos, such as strategy communications or around specific decisions.
  4. Other Performance Enablers
    1. Develop and strengthen the company's ability to follow up on key initiatives and commitments across standing teams (e.g., executive team) and special projects.
    2. Provide the Co-President & Chief Business Officer with increased visibility into Spotify's follow-up priorities, surfacing work that needs Co-President & Chief Business Officer attention.
    3. Sync and work with the Co-President & Chief Business Officer and executive assistant around long-term planning and prioritization of meetings and agenda.

Who you are

  1. Experienced project manager.
  2. Have worked extensively as a trusted counselor to senior executives.
  3. Accustomed to balancing a broad portfolio of short- and long-term responsibilities and projects in a complex, diverse, and dynamic global business environment.
  4. Sufficiently flexible and creative to see new ways of working and addressing problems, as well as implementing and evangelizing for them.
  5. Able to work independently with minimal direction, adapting quickly to changing priorities.
  6. Think strategically in a highly structured, analytic fashion.
  7. Familiar with a broad range of analytic tools and frameworks.
  8. Possess the dexterity, gravitas, and emotional intelligence necessary to engage diplomatically and collaboratively with a wide range of senior executives from diverse backgrounds in complex situations.
  9. Strong influence skills, able to build relationships across the organization outside a formal reporting structure.
  10. Balance the need to maintain good relationships with making sure the job gets done.
  11. Communicate clearly and persuasively both in person and in writing (significant writing capability a plus).
  12. Discreet, confidential, and of the highest professional integrity.
  13. Remain and project calm in a fast-paced, constantly changing, high-pressure environment; comfortable with ambiguity and uncertainty.
  14. A relevant degree from a well-recognized academic institution; preferable work experience or education from A-type environments (GM, Management consultancy, chief of staff, MBA, PhD, or similar).
