• Define and implement standards for client communication, meeting cadence, executive reporting, escalation management, issue resolution and value realization.

• Partner with growth and account leadership to support retention, expansion and differentiated market positioning for Managed Services.

• Help advance a culture of ownership, responsiveness, proactive communication and disciplined execution across Managed Services.

• Support strategic initiatives that improve scalability, margin, client retention, team effectiveness and market differentiation.

Ideal Candidate Profile • The successful candidate will be an experienced executive leader with a strong background in managed services, professional services, client delivery, client success, operations, or transformation. This person should understand how to lead through complexity, influence across functions and build consistency without adding unnecessary bureaucracy.

• This leader must bring executive presence, strong client judgment, operational discipline, and the ability to connect strategy with day-to-day delivery behaviors. They should be equally comfortable working with senior clients, coaching internal teams, resolving delivery challenges and shaping broader platform improvements.

Leadership Expectations • Creates clarity and consistenc
