The Opportunity - Director, Strategy & Operations (Remote - USA / Canada) As the Director, Strategy & Operations, you are the execution engine and strategic operator for Client Operations. This is a genuine leadership role, not an advisory or support function. You will hold end-to-end ownership of how a 100+ person organization plans, executes, communicates, and continuously improves, translating the SVP’s strategic direction into disciplined, measurable execution at scale. Your mandate spans the full operational lifecycle of Client Operations — from multi-year strategy through annual planning, quarterly priorities, and weekly execution rhythms.

This role is best suited for a proven Chief of Staff, senior Business Operations leader, or executive-level strategic operator who has moved beyond advising into genuine ownership — someone who translates ambiguity into structure, holds senior leaders accountable, and drives measurable outcomes at scale. Candidates with executive consulting backgrounds are welcome; however, this role requires deep operational ownership and a demonstrated ability to execute strategy sustainably.
