Investment Decision Support: Build the business cases behind program investments. Size the opportunity, model the returns, and frame tradeoffs so leadership can decide where to place bets and how large they should be.
Performance Management: Own performance measurement for Membership programs, including defining KPIs, setting goals and OKRs, and building reporting and forecasting that connect early signals to guest and host outcomes, revenue, and long-term value. Support the planning cadences (annual planning, long-range planning, and monthly or quarterly forecasts).
Program Economics and ROI: Develop and pressure-test the economics of programs, including incentive and benefit costs, guest and host response, and incremental impact.

- Superb financial modeling skills and extensive experience with quantitative: and qualitative financial analysis, including building business cases and ROI frameworks.
