<div><b>About the Role
</b><br>
<br>
The Global Community Operations organization provides support to Uber customers and various partners. As autonomous vehicles (AVs) become an increasingly important part of our offering, we are seeking a highly motivated and detail-oriented Senior Strategic Planning Associate to help manage the operational rhythm and planning efforts for AV Support. This role will be critical in leading key planning cadences, driving workforce and financial tracking, and informing agent strategy decisions.
<br>
<br>
You will partner closely with cross-functional stakeholders across Finance, Operations, Product, and Community Operations to build scalable mechanisms that guide investments, headcount strategy, and performance tracking across AV Support verticals including Rider/Eater Support, Remote Vehicle Assistance, and Field Support Operations.
<br>
<br>
This role sits at the intersection of financial rigor and strategic judgment - you will build and defend the operating plan, own headcount and budget forecasting, and advise on how our support network should evolve.

</li><li><b>Support Agent Network Strategy Projects: </b>Manage our network strategy - leading initiatives focused on agent footprint strategy, channel mix, automation, and enablement priorities across key functions. Build our long-term roadmap, ensuring alignment between our network strategy and evolving AV operational needs.
</li><li><b>Define Performance Targets &amp; Enable Decisions: </b>Set targets and measure performance across key support metrics - ensuring robust, defensible planning assumptions and methodologies. Build executive-ready narratives translating operational plans into clear business insights.
</li><li><b>Partner Cross-Functionally: </b>Collaborate with Finance, Ops, and CommOps to align on headcount, budget, and operational strategy.
</li></ul><b>Basic Qualifications
</b><ul><li>4+ years of experience in strategic finance, FP&amp;A, investment banking, corporate strategy, or management consulting
</li><li>Bachelor's degree
</li></ul><b>Preferred Qualifications
</b><ul><li>High proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets and ability to work with large data sets
