• Target High-Impact Areas: Architect the "Commander's" or "Comptroller's" agenda—optimizing end-to-end value chains such as Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO), Supply Chain Sustainment, and Financial Management.
• Build the Mission Case: Construct robust business cases that articulate the operational impact of Process Intelligence (e.g., impact on Sortie Generation Rates, Depot Throughput, or Working Capital Fund efficiency) to Senior Executive Service (SES) and Flag Officers.

• Solve Systemic Challenges: Work cross-functionally to tackle difficult implementation hurdles, helping customers define standards for legacy system modernization, data interoperability, and enterprise-wide change initiatives.
• Facilitate business value workshops and use Celonis to identify and qualify opportunities for process enhancement in Logistics and Finance.
• Derive improvement measures in core mission functions and initiate improvement actions and enterprise-wide change initiatives.

• Responsible for the end-to-end customer value journey, landing, expanding, adoption and renewing.
• Build a strategic expansion roadmap for customers, embedding Celonis Process Intelligence Platform as a strategic transformation platform in their organization.
