What You’ll Do:

The most common question asked is, 'what does a typical day in the life of an SCM look like?'

To answer that in brevity, no two days will be the same for you in this role:

● Scale the category volumes and revenues across your geographies, while ensuring superlative customer and partner experience at scale.

  • Building customer and partner love at scale
  • Leading a team from the front and empowering them to win based on UC's values

● Collaboration with cross-functional teams to ensure swift and robust execution.

  • Minimum 2-4 years experience in an ops-related/consulting/strategy role.
  • Demonstrated leadership of teams and projects – the ability to influence and lead.
  • Someone who can deliver under tight timelines

  • A great work environment with massive ownership and growth opportunities - we hire

  • Expect to work with people you can learn from and are invested in your growth
