At Isos Technology, we're looking for a strategic, people centered senior leader to own the performance, health, and evolution of our shared consulting organization.

Success in this role requires a disciplined, metrics-driven operator and strong people leader who drives business outcomes (utilization, margin, predictability) while fostering a high-accountability culture that supports engagement, retention, and development. This role is responsible for streamlining professional services delivery by embedding AI-enabled ways of working to improve efficiency, predictability, delivery performance, and accelerate client time-to-value creation.

• Develop and support career paths, skills development, and leadership coaching to strengthen capabilities across the team
• Identify skill gaps and proactively create development plans, training, and stretch opportunities
• Anticipate and address retention risks while maintaining high performance standards
