The C&PS Wireline Strategy and Planning team leads the management of the C&PS Wireline P&L, as well as senior leadership presentations and analytical deep dives.

The Wireline Planning team is a passionate and collaborative group specializing in sophisticated forecasting models, predictive analytics, and strategic business intelligence. Working in our team will give you the opportunity to learn about all aspects of our business - not just Marketing - while leveraging cutting-edge data science techniques and AI-powered insights to drive decision-making.

We are a team that strives for top-notch customer and business outcomes but also balances that with team member engagement and flexibility.
Here's the impact you'll make and what we'll accomplish together
As a Senior Strategy Manager, you'll take an "internal consultant" approach to thinking through the strategic competitor and customer-facing challenges at the core of our business objectives. You'll be the architect of our wireline forecasting ecosystem, building sophisticated predictive models that anticipate market trends, customer behavior, and revenue opportunities 3-18 months ahead. Through collaborating with key stakeholders across various teams and business units, you will actively manage the TBS Wireline KPIs around our product portfolio while transforming complex datasets into compelling narratives that drive executive decision-making. Collaborating with Marketing, Finance, and Strategy teams around the organization, you'll connect the dots between our day-to-day activities and the broader TELUS strategy to identify and solve important business challenges that are critical to our success.

• Lead ad hoc analytical deep dives into market anomalies, competitive threats, and emerging opportunities, translating findings into actionable strategic recommendations through compelling visualizations and executive-ready presentations
• Regularly review segment results to identify financial business challenges and support solving those challenges through process automation, predictive modeling, and AI-powered insights
• Develop relationships not just within the Wireline Marketing team, but also across the rest of the organization to ensure there is a solid understanding of and alignment to our strategic priorities
• Contribute to Senior leadership presentations, including strategy checks, board advances, and monthly financial reviews, transforming complex data into clear, impactful visual stories that drive decision-making
