• Categorize and assign incoming requests to appropriate teams (e.g., Web Content Ops, engineers, designers) based on criteria like complexity and impact.
• Oversee BAU and campaign delivery, ensuring the offshore Web Content Ops team follows clear processes, documentation, and quality standards.

• Liaise with internal stakeholders (Marketing, Sales, Customer, Product, and Engineering) to manage dependencies and expectations, ensuring transparent communication.
• Report on progress, risks, and delivery outcomes to the Growth Product Manager and relevant leadership teams.

Continuous Improvement & Quality

• Identify delivery bottlenecks and help refine workflows and sprint processes for greater velocity and collaboration, leveraging automation or AI tools where possible.
