JOB DESCRIPTION

The Strategic Programs & Implementation Team within Trust Operations exists to serve and support the broader needs of the Airbnb community. We strive for the perfect delivery of new defenses and defense enhancements to our ops teams, which preserve and build more trust within our communities. We ensure solutions are innovative, scalable, and deliver a world-class experience for our users.

As a Strategic Implementation Manager, you are responsible for driving large-scale, cross-functional, and cross-platform projects and programs that help achieve the strategic goals of the organization. You serve as the bridge between upstream groups (product, policy, hosting, community support) and cross functional stakeholders within operations and shared services to bring initiatives to life. You are responsible for ensuring the solutions launched are both innovative and scalable for Trust Operations. You must constantly advocate for your customers and will have a key voice in influencing the development of solutions. You will achieve this by becoming the SME, developing empathy, and creating low-complexity solutions that are streamlined and error proofed. What you launch will impact hundreds of operations agents, and delivering a superior user experience is table stakes.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Develop and lead high performing, cross-functional project teams within operations (Partner Management, Internal Operations, Tools Support, Product Ops) and Shared Services (OCM, WFP, Training, KM, Quality), managing multiple projects and programs simultaneously.
Create comprehensive and nimble end-to-end implementation plans through robust planning and actively drive the execution, launch, and post-launch control of solutions.
Collaborate closely with leadership to establish and maintain strategic alignment, communicate project status, and manage expectations.
Responsible for identifying and developing all operations business requirements, writing business requirements docs, and partnering with product & engineering teams to incorporate and prioritize ops’ needs into product requirement docs (PRDs).
Become the SME in your fraud/safety space and design high-quality end-to-end agent investigation workflows. You will leverage internal Airbnb tools (guide designer) to architect robust, error proofed, and streamlined processes.
Develop comprehensive user acceptance testing (UAT) plans and own end-to-end UAT of agent workflows to ensure solutions are ready for live production.
Drive optimal ops forecasting through close collaboration with product and workforce planning teams. As assumptions change, you’ll update plans dynamically and apply a lens of radical stewardship to the use of company resources.
Ensure solutions have been rigorously tested before rolling out at scale. Develop experiments, pilots, feedback channels and corresponding pre-launch success criteria to maximize learnings that inform solutions.
Partner with training teams to develop meaningful and exhaustive agent training that maximizes learning and knowledge retention.
Develop key insights into the quality and performance of your implementation. You’ll define key success metrics alongside your advanced analytics partners, and ensure robust dashboards are created to monitor the performance of pilot, launch and post-launch.
Maximize decision accuracy by ensuring quality metric frameworks are developed and tailored for your solution. Partner with QA teams to drive root cause analysis of decision accuracy errors, and develop solutions to prevent future failures.
Develop hypotheses and data collection plans when issues arise. Seek to prove or disprove through deep dive analysis.
Ensure lasting change through the ownership of key metrics and delivery of post-launch continuous improvement efforts. Once quality and performance have achieved target, develop comprehensive control plans for your customers to ensure their success.
Continuously evaluate and improve implementation management processes and methodologies to enhance organizational efficiency and contribute to the maturation of the Community Excellence Team.
