  • Liaise with cross-functional teams to coordinate work - understand and plan for work that our team needs to deliver to support other teams’ priority projects and ensure that other teams are allocating resources to support our deliverables when necessary. This includes, coordinating timelines and deliverables with Marketing and Partnerships teams and understanding the product and engineering roadmap to ensure that dependency work is accounted for and planned. 
  • Lead Content-focused projects with cross-functional dependencies including working with the appropriate teams to scope the project, define the process, implement the process and create reporting.
  • Manage the contractor and Content team budget and support in creation of budgets for review with Finance and Content Team Leadership. 
  • Lead hiring for new contractors including: coordinating resume reviews, scheduling interviews, collecting feedback and coordinating the contract creation.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
