As a private partnership, we believe our ownership structure fosters a long-term view that aligns our perspectives with those of our clients. About the Role We are seeking a Director, AI Business Enablement Strategist to lead AI adoption and value realization across the Infrastructure Platform. The Infrastructure Platform brings together the firm’s infrastructure functions — Enterprise Risk, Finance & Administration, Global Operations, Human Resources, Legal & Compliance, Technology, and shared enterprise services — with a mandate to turn complexity into clarity and speed into advantage so the firm can grow, adapt, and deliver for clients at scale. Artificial intelligence is central to that mandate.

The Director will work in close partnership with the Chief Product Owners, who connect business strategy and priorities to product roadmaps and delivery, forming a complementary virtual team that brings together business transformation, product management, technology, data, and change capabilities. Together, they will identify and prioritize high-value opportunities, redesign end-to-end workflows, sequence the portfolio, mobilize delivery, and ensure AI is embedded in the platform’s operating model and culture. The ideal candidate combines strategic thinking, operational execution, change leadership, product orientation, and AI fluency with a hands-on approach. They are comfortable taking a broad remit from concept through measurable impact, can build shared ownership across senior leaders and Product Owners, and have the judgment to listen, challenge constructively, clarify decisions, and follow through.

Foster a culture of continuous learning, responsible experimentation, and innovation. Influence and Cross-Functional Leadership Participate in and facilitate leadership forums, working groups, and decision-making routines that advance the platform’s AI agenda.
