Role Overview: Strategy & Business Operations Lead, Fashion
As the Strategy & BizOps Lead for Fashion, you will play a pivotal role advancing the success of eBay’s Global Fashion programs. This is a high-leverage role for someone who can turn ambiguity into a crisp strategy, align senior stakeholders, and drive execution across Category, Product, Marketing, Analytics, and Engineering.
Using AI-enabled capabilities, you will lead work end-to-end—executive narratives and materials, strategic deep dives, and operational cadence—to translate priorities into measurable outcomes. You will report to the Director of Luxury.
What you’ll do
- Set the growth agenda: Translate leadership priorities into a focused roadmap across jewelry, handbags, watches, sneakers, apparel, and accessories—defining what to win, where to invest, and how success is measured.
- Run the business: Build and operate the operating rhythm (OKRs, weekly/monthly business reviews, initiative governance, decision logs) that drives clarity, accountability, and speed.
- Lead strategic projects: Identify the biggest growth constraints (selection, price/value, conversion, seller activation, trust signals), quantify the opportunity, and drive cross-functional plans with clear owners and milestones.
- Drive AI-enabled transformation: Identify where AI can unlock step-change outcomes (e.g., listing quality/attribute extraction, pricing guidance, personalized merchandising, counterfeit/risk detection, seller support automation), then partner with Product/Data/Eng to pilot, measure, and scale.
- Create executive narratives: Produce tight, compelling materials for senior leaders—problem statements, options, tradeoffs, recommendations, and clear asks.
- Unblock execution: Influence across teams, resolve tradeoffs, and ensure follow-through—especially when priorities compete.
What you bring
- Management consulting background: Proven structured problem solving and executive-ready communication; experience leading complex, cross-functional workstreams from strategy to execution.
- AI experience: Led or partnered on GenAI/ML initiatives with measurable impact (e.g., automation, model-driven workflows, analytics/decisioning, experimentation, or product features).
- Strong operator and program leader: Builds operating systems, drives momentum, manages multiple priorities, and closes loops with rigor.
- Analytical horsepower: Comfortable with messy data; able to synthesize quickly into actionable insights and clear recommendations.
- Executive storytelling: Able to distill complexity into crisp narratives, decision points, and compelling materials for senior leadership.
- Ecommerce fluency: Strong understanding of ecommerce/marketplace dynamics; Fashion and/or re-commerce experience is highly desirable.
- Influence without authority: Navigates complex stakeholder environments and drives alignment across Category, Product, Marketing, Analytics, and Engineering.
- Travel: Willingness to travel up to 30% of the time.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship in Strategy Business Operations
Align your degree to the role
USCIS scrutinizes whether your degree directly relates to strategy or operations work. A business administration, management, or industrial engineering degree maps cleanly. If your degree is in an adjacent field, document how your coursework covers planning, analytics, or process optimization.
Search LCA filings by occupation code
Use the OFLC Wage Search to filter Labor Condition Applications under SOC codes for management analysts and operations specialists. This shows which employers actively filed for these roles, not just which ones advertise them.
Target companies with dedicated operations functions
Large tech, financial services, and healthcare companies typically have centralized strategy and operations teams with established H-1B filing pipelines. Smaller firms often lack the HR infrastructure to support sponsorship for non-engineering roles, so org structure matters.
Use Migrate Mate to filter verified sponsors
Filter Strategy Business Operations roles by employers with confirmed H-1B LCA filing history on Migrate Mate. This removes companies that list the title but have no documented sponsorship activity, saving significant time in your outreach.
Clarify the job duties match specialty occupation criteria
Before accepting an offer, review the job description against the O*NET profile for your specific SOC code. Vague language like 'support business initiatives' can trigger an RFE. Ask the employer to use degree-specific language in the offer letter and I-129 petition.
Time your offer around the cap registration window
H-1B cap registration opens each March for an October 1 start date. If you receive an offer in June, you'll wait until the following March to register. Negotiating a start date or consulting arrangement that bridges this gap is a practical step worth raising with the employer directly.
Strategy Business Operations jobs are hiring across the US. Find yours.
Find Strategy Business Operations JobsStrategy Business Operations H-1B Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Do Strategy Business Operations roles qualify as H-1B specialty occupations?
Yes, when the position genuinely requires a bachelor's degree or higher in a specific field like business administration, management, finance, or operations research. The key is that the degree requirement must be tied to the role itself, not just listed as a preference. Roles framed as generalist coordination or administrative support are more likely to face scrutiny from USCIS.
Which industries sponsor H-1B visas most consistently for strategy and operations professionals?
Technology companies, management consulting firms, financial services institutions, and large healthcare systems have the most established H-1B filing infrastructure for strategy and operations roles. These employers typically have dedicated immigration teams and recurring LCA filings under relevant SOC codes. You can confirm active filing history for specific employers on Migrate Mate before applying.
How does the H-1B prevailing wage requirement affect strategy and operations job offers?
The employer must pay you at least the prevailing wage for your role, experience level, and work location, as determined by DOL wage data. For strategy and operations titles, wage levels vary significantly by metro area and seniority tier. You can look up the applicable wage floor using the OFLC Wage Search before evaluating an offer to understand whether the compensation is compliant.
Can I work in a strategy or operations role while on OPT and transition to H-1B sponsorship?
Yes. If your degree field aligns with the role, employers can sponsor you for H-1B while you're authorized on OPT. The critical timing issue is the cap registration window in March. If your OPT expires before October 1 of the cap year you're selected in, you may need a STEM OPT extension to bridge the gap, which requires working for an E-Verify enrolled employer.
What should I ask an employer during the interview process to assess their H-1B sponsorship capability?
Ask specifically whether the company has sponsored H-1B visas for strategy or operations roles before, not just for engineering or technical positions. Find out whether they work with an immigration attorney or handle filings in-house, and whether they cover premium processing fees. Employers with no prior experience sponsoring non-engineering roles sometimes underestimate the documentation requirements for specialty occupation proof.
