Full Job Description

About This Role

The Associate Director of Strategic Initiatives & Special Projects leads high-priority, cross-functional initiatives that are critical to the company’s growth and evolution. This role is designed to drive execution of complex projects that do not sit neatly within one department—such as major product launches, new business model rollouts, enterprise software deployments, and other company-defining initiatives.

You operate at the intersection of strategy and execution. You translate executive vision into structured plans, build alignment across departments, anticipate risk, and ensure initiatives deliver measurable results.

This role carries executive-level visibility and accountability without necessarily having direct team ownership.

Your Impact & Contribution

You ensure the company can launch, scale, and evolve without organizational breakdown. By bringing structure, clarity, and disciplined execution to ambiguous initiatives, you reduce risk and increase the probability of success for the company’s most important bets.

Your work directly impacts revenue growth, operational efficiency, and long-term strategic positioning.

Your Professional Learning Journey

This role develops enterprise-level thinking, executive communication, and multi-functional leadership. You will refine:

Strategic planning and prioritization
Program-level execution across departments
Organizational influence without formal authority
Risk management and decision escalation
Executive-level reporting and stakeholder management

This role prepares you for Director-level ownership of a function or broader operational leadership.

Ensure compliance, contractual, and system dependencies are addressed
Protect the organization from avoidable launch or implementation failures

Operational Design & Repeatability

Build scalable frameworks for future launches and strategic initiatives
Document lessons learned and institutionalize best practices
Recommend improvements to company-wide initiative governance
Identify capability gaps that limit execution speed

What Success Looks Like

Major initiatives launch on schedule with minimal disruption
Cross-functional teams operate with clarity and accountability
Leadership has real-time visibility into progress and risk
Strategic initiatives deliver measurable business outcomes
The organization becomes more capable of executing complex initiatives over time
Fewer surprises occur during launches or rollouts

Requirements

6–10+ years of experience in operations, strategy, program management, or similar
Proven experience leading complex cross-functional initiatives
