You Will Lead strategic cross-functional programs - Own end-to-end delivery of Revenue's highest-priority initiatives, from initial planning through launch and post-launch stabilization.
- Develop integrated program plans that align Product, Sales, Marketing, Finance, Legal, Risk, Operations, and other stakeholders around a shared execution plan.
- Drive cross-functional alignment, proactively identifying dependencies, risks, and decisions that could impact successful delivery.
- Establish governance, operating cadences, executive reviews, and decision forums to keep initiatives on track.
Deliver successful product and partnership launches - Lead the commercial execution of new product launches, ensuring the Revenue organization is prepared to successfully bring new capabilities to market.
- Serve as the program lead for strategic partnerships, coordinating technical, operational, legal, commercial, and go-to-market workstreams through launch.
- Partner closely with Product throughout development to ensure launch plans align with product readiness and business objectives.
- Coordinate operational readiness across customer-facing teams, including Sales, Account Management, Support, and Partnerships.
Build scalable operating mechanisms - Develop repeatable launch frameworks, playbooks, governance models, and operating processes that improve execution across future initiatives.
- Drive continuous improvement by identifying opportunities to simplify cross-functional execution and reduce operational friction.
- Create clear executive communications that enable rapid decision-making and provide visibility into program health.
You Have - 8+ years of experience leading complex cross-functional programs in strategy, operations, product, consulting, or go-to-market organizations.
- Demonstrated experience leading major product launches, strategic partnerships, or enterprise-wide initiatives.
- Exceptional ability to influence and build alignment without direct authority.
- Strong executive presence and experience communicating with senior leaders.
- Outstanding organizational and program management skills with the ability to manage multiple high-impact initiatives simultaneously.
