About the Team
The Research Operations team is a vital part of Zillow Research & Insights (ZRI), a multidisciplinary team of researchers working closely with Customer and Partner Insights Strategists, UX Researchers, Behavioral Scientists, and Population Scientists. This team plays a crucial role within the greater product and marketing organizations.
ZRI sits within Zillow Experience Design (ZxD), a fast-paced, collaborative, and driven product design team. We build useful, usable, and innovative experiences for Zillow customers, encompassing web, mobile, and internal software platforms. Our focus is on ensuring quality across every touchpoint.
Our team is dedicated to solving problems for real people – customers, co-workers, and everyone else. We strive to make everything a little better than we found it. We're a tight-knit, fun-loving, and upbeat group, and we're excited to grow our Research Operations team with this role.
About the Role
The Senior Research Operations Program Manager will develop and be responsible for researcher enablement programs, helping team members do the best work of their careers through impact, scale, and efficiencies.
This role works closely with research, design, product management, marketing, engineering, and data science teams. You will spend the majority of your time completing operational tasks while supporting the evolution and growth of the Research Ops function at Zillow.
Some key areas that this role will focus on:
- Recruiting Center of Excellence: Establish and lead participant sourcing processes across participant profiles and qualitative and quantitative methods with a focus on researcher efficiency (and alignment with compliance requirements)
- User List Management: Develop, implement, and own user list processes across Zillow Research & Insights in partnership with Data Science and Marketing Operations; drive adoption, establish feedback loops, continuous process iteration, and resolve challenges
- Panel Management: Consolidate and manage two B2B partner research participant panels
- Metrics: Track health/utility of different recruiting methods, all-up record keeping of studies completed, participants recruited, etc.
- Tool Management: Manage ZRI's research tool suite, including access and use administration, maintenance of best practices documentation, and tooling strategy
- Operational Excellence: Support operationalizing the mission and principles of the Research & Insights team; project manage special initiatives and work groups
To be successful in this role, you'll need a good balance of strategy and tactical execution, sharp communication skills, and the ability to collaborate widely across the business.
You will get to:
- Lead the portfolio of researcher enablement programs
- Collaborate with ZRI ICs, leadership, and key collaborators to align recruiting efforts with Zillow Group's evolving needs
- Partner with research operations leadership to set team goals, roadmaps, and best utilize team resources
- Engage, partner, and collaborate with team members and leadership to proactively uncover opportunities to radically improve the effectiveness of our research team and processes
- Create, socialize, and maintain repeatable processes for research (e.g. communications, templates, etc.)
- Own systems for project documentation, status tracking, and reporting to ensure stakeholders and team members are involved at the right times, understand project timelines, and follow through on their commitments
- Build and maintain a trusted, cooperative relationship with cross-functional partners
- Apply strategic tools, systems, and data to help the team analyze trends and deliver insights to define goals and improve processes
- Own and facilitate meetings to drive progress against goals and objectives, and establish clear next steps and owners while resolving blocks that impede progress
- Report out on the top-level achievements and impact of programs you manage
