• Build trust and influence across senior stakeholders, acting as a thought partner, advisor, and driver of change.
• Lead a cross-functional deployment team (delivery, data, comms, change) — with you at the helm, aligning efforts to business impact.
• Facilitate strategic working sessions, steer executive updates, and own the story of value BetterUp delivers to the customer.
• Partner with the Account Team to ensure continuity and maximize expansion opportunities through advisory-led influence.
• Keep your eye on outcomes, not just deliverables — ensuring we deliver the transformation we promised.
• Bring pattern recognition, coaching mindset, and a high bar for strategic execution to every engagement.

• Experience leading complex, cross-functional deployments or change initiatives at scale.
• Exceptional communication skills and the ability to craft and deliver a narrative that moves hearts and minds.

• Experience operating inside high-growth SaaS, human transformation platforms, or people tech companies is a plus.
• A mindset rooted in outcomes, ownership, and long-term impact.
• Applies AI-driven tools and insights to enhance client engagement, identify growth opportunities, and improve account performance (e.g., personalization, upsell targeting, churn prediction)
