About the role
- Manage strategy KPI dashboards (e.g., SSSG, transactions, digital mix) and independently run recurring channel/occasion and digital-development analyses that feed quarterly leadership reviews.
- Partner with Data & Analytics to stand up and run near-real-time (daily/weekly) performance refreshes; act as day-to-day contact with internal partners to align metric definitions and shape how results are visualized and analyzed, packaging outputs into tidy workbooks and one-page readouts.
- Build clear, executive-ready narratives, including modeling, for quarterly strategy reviews, board updates, and key leadership meetings.
- Support strategic development by modeling acquisition, developing market/peer comps & precedents, and constructing defensible cases (base/upside/downside) grounded in unit economics, synergy drivers, and integration assumptions.
- Maintain a living view of how we win market-by-market: competitor financials, share trends, menu/price moves, channel shifts, and capability gaps.
- Partner with Insights/Finance to codify momentum metrics and signal where to double-down or pivot.
- Translate signals into actionable callouts (where to double-down or pivot), explicitly weighing trade-offs, risks, and expected impact; highlight complexity drivers.
- Own the franchisee portfolio health dashboard and governance (in partnership with the Yum Franchising Office), turning submissions into insights and action flags for the Strategy leadership team.
- Track enterprise risks that matter for growth (capital access, supply, regulatory, macro) and quantify mitigation choices.
- Analyze large-franchisee performance and capital posture to inform refranchising and investment decisions.
