The opportunity
At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive.
What you'll do
Strategic thought partnership: Act as a sounding board to the Head of LUS on priorities, tradeoffs, and organizational decisions; bring a point of view and clear recommendations, backed by data and analysis
Planning and goal-setting: Own the LUS annual planning and OKR process, from timelines and frameworks through final plans; track progress against goals, surface dependencies and risks early, and drive course corrections
Operating rhythm and governance: Design and continually improve how the LUS leadership team operates, including staff meetings, business reviews, offsites, and decision forums, so that decisions get made and followed through
Executive readiness: Prepare the Head of LUS for key meetings and reviews, including with Lyft's executive team; partner with teams ahead of executive reviews so materials are clear, concise, and ready for a decision
Strategic initiatives: Lead cross-functional initiatives across key areas of the business, from research and business cases through execution
Internal communications: Own LUS internal communications, including all-hands, regular leadership and team updates; craft communications plans that keep a global team connected to priorities and progress
What they're looking for
- Change management: Help lead the organization through change, including new priorities, team structures, and ways of working, with clear plans, stakeholder alignment, and communication
- Org effectiveness: Partner closely with the Executive Business Partner, People, and Finance on org health, headcount planning, engagement, and initiatives that support the Head of LUS; find gaps and put scalable solutions in place
- Cross-functional alignment: Build trusted relationships across LUS and the rest of Lyft, break down silos, and act as a point of contact for alignment on shared priorities
- Ways of working: Find and build scalable processes, including using AI and automation, that make the team faster and free leaders to focus on the highest-value work
