Alexandra Pantazis
Strategy & Operations Leader · Enterprise Transformation · Fintech · NYC
Summary
I specialize in building the operational workflows that link C-suite goals to daily output. between high-level executive vision and rigorous operational execution within highly regulated global environments. I have spent a decade transforming complex, fragmented processes into scalable enterprise frameworks that prioritize governance while maintaining a 2-week deployment cycle. At American Express and Salesforce, I have successfully managed portfolios of over 1,000 regulated assets and scaled operating models across 38 global markets, ensuring that every initiative survives a Finance audit without manual data massaging that Finance actually trusts. I am particularly effective at translating technical debt into financial risk between Finance, IT, and Product teams to motivate Product and IT to agree on one source of truth and risk mitigation. I led a governance overhaul that catalyzed a 218% YoY increase in compliant campaign deployments. I am the person hired to build 'strategy-to-execution' roadmaps, using Tableau to expose bottlenecks in our two-week sprint cycles to provide senior leadership with a live dashboard that flags late deployments instantly. If you are looking for a leader who can navigate the intricacies of global compliance while operationalizing analytics as I've done in the past, with a 218% jump in compliant deployments, I offer the expertise to standardize high-output workflows across your organization. I am ready to lead your next phase of enterprise transformation with precision and actual data-backed predictions.
