• Support your team as a resource for escalation and remove roadblocks
• Drive change and lead the team through change that will scale the business
• Encourage and model risk taking, data-informed decision making, and constant innovation
• Advocate on behalf of the team and build strong bridges with cross-functional partners

Requirements:
• 8+ years of people and organizational management at a global company working across regions, understanding regional cultural nuances
• A proven track record of improving operations in a product-centric digital company, displayed by a data-driven approach
• Relationship management know-how across internal teams from business to marketing to engineering and product, as well as external partners

• Success in leading teams through change and driving change
• A curiosity to learn other parts of the business that will better inform yours
• A mindset bent toward constant process improvement
• The ability to adapt to the Netflix culture and values

• Operations improve year on year, measured through metrics
• Partner teams understand the value you and your team provides
• Your team feels inspired and understands how their work contributes to larger goals
