Full Job Description
Role Overview
We are seeking an ambitious, client-facing EVP & Head of Growth to lead our Go-To-Market (GTM) strategy, drive top-of-funnel client acquisition, and champion Data Society Group's continued evolution into a leading Data & AI advisory partner.

In this role, you will report to the CEO and will be an integral member of the executive team. The EVP & Head of Growth will be responsible for overseeing our Sales & Marketing teams and positioning our company as a trusted strategic advisor to C-suite executives who are navigating complex data and AI transformations. While your primary charter is business development and firm growth, you will bring deep domain gravitas to shape high-impact engagements before seamlessly transitioning delivery execution to our Solutions & Workforce Transformation delivery teams.

This is a remote / work from home position that can be based anywhere within the United States with frequent travel to current and prospective client locations plus events and conferences.

Responsibilities
  1. Commercial Leadership & Operations (35%)
    1. Oversee Commercial Teams: Direct, mentor, and align the Sales and Marketing teams to create a unified, high-performing revenue organization.
    2. Build the GTM Engine: Establish repeatable outbound sales motions, inbound marketing funnels, demand generation programs, and strategic alliances
    3. Define Commercial Ops: Establish sales targets, marketing budgets, attribution tracking, CRM rigor, pricing frameworks, and pipeline forecasting to bring predictability to revenue growth.
    4. Brand & Thought Leadership: Direct marketing initiatives to elevate the firm's brand positioning around enterprise AI transformation, C-suite advisory, and change management.
  2. Business Development (35%)
    1. Drive Revenue Origination: Own the annual gross margin and revenue targets for new enterprise advisory engagements.
    2. C-Suite Engagement: Build and leverage high-trust relationships with CEOs, CIOs, CTOs, and Chief AI Officers to uncover high-value transformation opportunities.
    3. Lead Consultative Pitches: Lead complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles, shifting discussions away from commodity technical staffing toward high-margin strategic advisory.
  3. Strategic Advisory & Transformation Scoping (15%)
    1. Package Core Offerings: Collaborate with internal domain experts to productize and launch core service lines around AI Strategy, LLM / Agentic Deployments, Governance, and Change Management.
    2. Scope Strategic Deals: Lead early-stage discovery, diagnostic workshops, and value-based proposal development for AI adoption.
    3. Executive Oversight: Serve as Executive Sponsor on key strategic accounts, participating in steering committees to protect account health and identify follow-on expansion opportunities.
  4. Strategic Leadership & Delivery Hand-Off (15%)
    1. Seamless Organizational Hand-Off: Partner closely with our Solutions and Workforce Transformation Teams to ensure smooth and achievable transitions from Sales to Delivery.
    2. Data Society Group Governance: Participate as a core member of the executive leadership team to shape company culture, compensation models, and multi-year growth strategy.
Qualifications
  • Proven Commercial Track Record: 10+ years of professional services/consulting experience with a demonstrated history of selling $1.5M-$3M+ deals annually in advisory or consulting services.
  • Sales & Marketing Management: Proven experience managing commercial teams (Sales/Business Development, Brand & Growth Marketing) and building a structured GTM function in a B2B or consulting environment.
  • Data to AI Domain Depth: Strong baseline understanding of modern data architectures paired with deep domain experience in enterprise AI adoption (AI readiness, use-case prioritization, ROI modeling, and AI governance).
  • Consultative Selling Mastery: Exceptional ability to translate complex technical capabilities into business outcomes for non-technical executive buyers.
  • Collaborative Leadership: Thrives in a matrixed environment where commercial success relies on tight operational alignment with delivery-focused MDs.
  • Change Management: Successful history of leading teams through change.
If you are a visionary leader passionate about leveraging data and AI to transform businesses, we encourage you to apply!
