About the Role

The Company is seeking a Vice President of Transformation and IPO Readiness to lead an integrated program preparing the business to operate as a public company. The role will oversee transformation across enterprise systems, finance and HR data, billing, customer management, and integrations, while connecting delivery plans to audit, internal controls, financial close, and revenue recognition requirements. Responsibilities include managing roadmaps, dependencies, risks, and decision-making; holding implementation partners accountable; and guiding executives and cross-functional teams through testing and go-live. The VP will also promote consistent program management practices and lead a growing transformation team. Candidates should have hands-on experience leading IPO or public-company readiness at a pre-IPO or recently public organization, along with a track record of delivering large enterprise resource planning implementations through go-live. Strong program execution skills are required, including integrated planning, risk and issue tracking, stage gates, and testing phases. The role calls for the ability to work through complex details, influence senior stakeholders, and coordinate cross-functional teams. Experience in a services business, with HR or billing platforms, or in transformation advisory alongside in-house leadership is an advantage.
