About The Position

Global is seeking a highly experienced Senior Process Strategist, Enterprise Applications to serve as the enterprise authority on application-enabled business processes across designated core platforms (e.g., Right Angle, Oracle, PDI, CRM and other significant systems, as required). Operating as a senior individual contributor, this role sits at the critical intersection of business and technology — requiring deep, working knowledge of both how the business operates end-to-end and how enterprise applications can be configured, integrated, and optimized to support that work. The fundamental purpose of this role is to ensure Global maximizes the value of its enterprise technology investments. That means designing the business processes that surround these systems so they are intuitive and efficient for the people using them, while simultaneously leveraging the full capability of the underlying technology — so that every investment in these platforms translates into realized business value, improved operational performance, and scalable outcomes for the enterprise. The Senior Process Strategist, Enterprise Applications partners closely with the Business Process Design Strategist, IT, Project Management and the Business across the enterprise to ensure that application-enabled processes align with enterprise architecture standards, governance models, and the company’s strategic business priorities. This role brings advanced expertise in key end- to end operational business processes and system configurations, integrations, controls, and workflow optimization, ensuring that enterprise applications drive measurable business value, operational performance, and scalable process outcomes. The ideal candidate combines deep enterprise system fluency with strong business acumen and rigorous process discipline. They have a proven track record of redesigning complex, cross-functional, application-enabled processes in ways that simultaneously improve the user experience, maximize return on technology investment, and embed sustainable, scalable ways of working.
