The Principal, Strategic Operations is a high-impact, enterprise-level role responsible for designing, evolving, and driving adoption of Digible’s operating system, ensuring the company’s strategy translates into focused execution, disciplined prioritization, and measurable business outcomes.

This role goes beyond operating existing processes. It owns how the company plans, prioritizes, and executes work across the Executive Leadership Team (ELT), Senior Leadership Team (SLT), and the broader organization. This includes leading annual and quarterly planning, driving cross-company prioritization, and establishing the operating rhythms, tools, and frameworks that enable consistent execution.

Success in this role requires the ability to credibly influence and challenge senior leaders, ensuring alignment and accountability even when it requires changing established behaviors. This individual must be able to command a room, facilitate high-stakes discussions, and drive decisions that improve focus, capacity discipline, and business performance.

This role is also the primary driver of organizational change management, ensuring new ways of working are not only introduced, but consistently adopted across leadership and the broader organization to drive business outcomes.

A Systems Builder – You don’t just operate within systems, you design and evolve them. You enjoy building frameworks that bring clarity, alignment, and discipline to how a business runs.

A Strategic Operator – You naturally connect strategy to execution, ensuring priorities translate into focused, high-impact work that drives measurable business outcomes.

A Commanding Facilitator – You can confidently lead rooms of senior leaders, guiding discussions with structure and energy while driving alignment, decisions, and clear next steps.

An Influencer Without Authority – You are highly effective at driving accountability across teams and senior leaders without direct reporting lines, using relationships, structure, and clarity to move work forward.

A Change Leader – You thrive in driving organizational change, helping leaders adopt new ways of planning, prioritizing, and operating even when it requires challenging established behaviors and driving sustained adoption.

A Business-Minded Operator – You understand how the business makes money and use that insight to shape priorities, ensuring operational decisions are grounded in revenue, margin, and long-term sustainability.

A Clarity Creator – You bring order to complexity, defining priorities, ownership, and tradeoffs so teams can execute with focus and confidence.

An Accountability Driver – You ensure that strategic initiatives are not just defined, but executed, creating visibility, follow-through, and ownership across the organization.

Design, implement, and continuously evolve Digible’s enterprise operating system, including planning frameworks, prioritization models, and operating rhythms that connect strategy to execution.

Own annual and quarterly planning processes, ensuring priorities are clearly defined, aligned to business outcomes, and realistically resourced across the organization.

Ensure all strategic initiatives are clearly tied to measurable business outcomes, including revenue growth, margin improvement, client performance, and operational efficiency.

Drive organization-wide adoption of new planning processes, tools, and operating rhythms. Ensure leadership consistently uses and reinforces these systems, even when it requires changing existing behaviors or challenging established norms.

Lead ELT and SLT discussions with clarity and authority, guiding prioritization tradeoffs, resolving misalignment, and ensuring decisions are translated into actionable plans.

Ensure initiatives progress with clear ownership and accountability across the business, using influence, structure, and operating discipline rather than direct reporting lines.
