The opportunity
Picture a business with decades of brand trust, a huge online audience and demand that keeps climbing. Now picture it rebuilding itself from the ground up as an AI-native company. That's where this role sits.
Sales are moving fast. Your job is to make sure delivery keeps pace and then some. You'll own everything that happens after a client says yes, across five service lines, and turn rapid growth into service that is consistent, efficient and genuinely good. This is a hands-on seat for a decisive, commercially sharp operator who likes building the machine, not just running it.
What you'll own
• The delivery engine. Throughput, turnaround times, backlog, capacity and service levels, end to end.
• The people. Lead and coach a group of Practice Leads and senior delivery managers, with a real operating rhythm of reviews and scorecards.
• The economics. Delivery cost, productivity and contribution margin, built with Finance into budgets and forecasts.
• The rebuild. A roadmap to modernize delivery with automation and AI, shaped alongside the CPO and CTO.
• The plan. Turn sales forecasts and growth targets into capacity and hiring plans, and give the COO a clear, data-driven view of what's coming.
Who thrives here
- 5 to 12 years in operations, with 3+ years leading high-volume service delivery.
- You've led teams of 20 to 50+, including managers who run their own teams.
- You've redesigned processes and can show the numbers: productivity up, quality up, cost down.
- You're at home in budgets, capacity models and unit economics.
- You've pushed AI and automation adoption and turned technology spend into results you can point to.
