Lightspeed is currently undergoing a multi-year transformation focused on strengthening core growth engines and driving operational efficiency across the business. In this role, you will help bring strategy to life by translating priorities into action, removing roadblocks, and ensuring initiatives deliver measurable impact. The ideal candidate combines strong strategic thinking with a bias toward execution and experience navigating complex, cross-functional environments.

What you'll be doing:

• Drive high-priority transformation initiatives from concept through execution, ensuring accountability and delivery of measurable outcomes

• Translate strategic priorities into actionable plans, bringing strategy to life through clear execution plans, ownership, and outcomes

• Strong structured problem-solving skills, with the ability to connect strategy to execution and drive outcomes

• Demonstrated experience leading complex, cross-functional initiatives in fast-paced, matrixed environments
