Strategic Projects Lead

As Strategic Projects Lead, you'll take the company's most important initiatives from "good idea" to "actually happening." You will:

• Own 3-5 make-or-break projects at any time, including launching new products, entering new markets, or restructuring operations
• Work directly with the CEO and leadership team to scope what success looks like and how to get there
• Pull together the right people from across the company and keep them focused on what matters
• Build the business case and financial models that justify why the project is worth doing
• Run project workstreams, track milestones, and adjust plans when reality hits
• Spot the issues that will derail the project in two months and solve them today
• Present progress and recommendations to the Board and executive team
• Turn one-off projects into repeatable processes that the company can use again

• Previous experience in consulting (MBB, Big 4, or boutique firms)
• 3-5+ years delivering strategic projects, transformations, or new business initiatives
• Experience taking messy, ambiguous problems and turning them into clear action plans
• Strong analytical skills (you can build models, crunch data, and find the insight that matters)
• The ability to influence senior people without formal authority over them
• Great at explaining complex topics simply, whether in a deck or a conversation
• Comfortable when priorities shift and you need to figure things out as you go
