Strategic Projects Lead - New York What you'll be responsible for: 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

You’ll be a strong match if you have:

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
