About the Role

Tapestry’s Business Operations team installs, supports, promotes the strong business practices we need to both grow and scale. We lead planning, reporting, and optimize Tapestry's operational rhythms. Additionally, we drive critical special projects across the company that advance Tapestry's strategic goals and execution.

You are a world class visual and written communicator, a seasoned analyst, and an excellent program manager. You are passionate about using modern tools to scale processes and organizations to support growth and excellence. You are a strong teammate who can partner with any function to deliver value, always starting with intelligent and empathetic questions. You have experience in the world of electric grids and are passionate about solving its bottlenecks.
