About The Position

The Global Analytics team is reimagining how data builds decisions, strategy, and innovation across the company. We sit at the center of insights — using AI and analytics to unlock growth, build customer value, and shape eBay’s next chapter. This role sits at the intersection of strategy, product, operations, and executive communications. We are looking for a Strategy & Operations Lead to help the organization operate effectively, communicate its impact, and build stronger connections with partners across the company. You will partner closely with the Global Analytics leadership team to shape priorities, establish effective operating rhythms, prepare for executive forums, translate complex analytical work into clear, compelling narratives, and scale AI solutions. You’ll operate across levels - translating strategy into activation and ideas into deployed products. A central part of this role will be telling the story of Global Analytics. You will connect individual projects and insights to broader business priorities, increase awareness and adoption of the team’s work, and ensure that leaders across the organization understand where and how Analytics is creating value. The ideal candidate is a highly organized, strategic thinker, and exceptional communicator who can move fluidly between long-term planning and urgent day to day execution. You should be comfortable working with senior executives, synthesizing complex information quickly, and driving alignment across a global, cross-functional organization.
