Position Overview

We are seeking a Strategic Partnership and Lanch Leader to join our team, someone who brings EHS and Sustainability domain expertise, practical experience implementing digital solutions, and a strong passion for translating complex business needs into impactful, real-world technology outcomes. This role works closely with subscribers, Account Management, Technical Implementation teams, and external implementation consultants to bring digital transformation initiatives to life in a coordinated, execution-focused way.

 

This is a unique opportunity to build and lead a function dedicated to orchestrating our most critical and complex new subscriber launches and strategic partnerships. The Strategic Partnership and Launch Leader plays a pivotal role in guiding high-impact new subscriber launches (NSL) and strategic transitions by providing clear ownership, executive-level coordination, and disciplined execution from planning through stabilization.

 

In this role, you will serve as both a strategic orchestrator and execution leader, ensuring seamless collaboration across teams, driving alignment and accountability, and translating vision into action during high-impact subscriber engagements. You will own the success of new subscriber launches end-to-end, partnering across functions to deliver confident, outcomes-focused experiences for our most important relationships.

 

This is a highly visible, influence-driven role for a leader who thrives in ambiguity, brings structure to complexity, and builds trust across teams and with customers, while ensuring digital solutions are implemented thoughtfully, effectively, and with lasting impact.

• Identify and mitigate risks early, escalating issues and implementing solutions proactively

 

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Partner closely with Account Management, Expansion, Revenue & Growth, Fulfillment & Delivery, and Product teams to ensure coordinated execution
• Lead cross-functional alignment meetings, driving consensus on priorities, dependencies, and accountability
• Break down silos and facilitate communication between teams to ensure nothing falls through the cracks
• Support and enable existing team structures rather than replacing them, complement and enhance current capabilities

 

Executive Engagement & Stakeholder Management

• Manage executive-level relationships and communications with strategic/ priority subscribers
• Prepare and deliver executive briefings, status updates, and business reviews
• Escalate critical issues appropriately and recommend strategic solutions
• Serve as a trusted advisor to leadership on complex customer situations

Program Management & Accountability

• Establish and track key performance indicators (KPIs) and success metrics for each launch
• Maintain detailed project plans, timelines, and dependency maps
• Ensure accountability through clear ownership assignments and regular progress monitoring
• Document lessons learned and best practices to continuously improve launch processes

Continuity & Stabilization

• Provide consistent leadership through critical transition points and key milestones
• Ensure smooth handoffs between launch and steady-state operations
• Monitor post-launch performance and support stabilization efforts
• Build long-term strategic relationships with key subscribers

 

Qualifications

• 5-7 years of experience in customer success, account management, program management, or related roles with demonstrated expertise in managing complex, high-stakes engagements.
• Experience in EHS, ESG, or operational risk management industries.
• Strong cross-functional leadership experience with ability to influence and align teams without direct authority.
• Outstanding organizational and project management skills with ability to manage multiple complex initiatives simultaneously.
• Domain expertise in B2B enterprise customer engagement, SaaS operations, or similar environments.

• Background in customer lifecycle management or customer success operations.
• Familiarity with CRM systems, project management tools, and business analytics platforms.
• Experience in a matrix organization or complex organizational structure.

• Leading transformational customer engagements and new subscriber launches.
• Building and optimizing processes that scale.
• Solving complex, cross-organizational challenges.
• Driving measurable business impact through strategic collaboration.
• Developing and mentoring high-performing teams.
