Requirements

What you’ll need

You have exceptional executive storytelling and visual design skills, with the ability to synthesize complex ideas into compelling presentations, briefing materials, and visual narratives tailored to senior audiences.
You can quickly understand complex Finance and operating workflows and distinguish a meaningful, scalable AI use case from a compelling but superficial demo.
You excel at translating between operators, executives, product teams, researchers, and go-to-market partners, turning ambiguity and cross-functional inputs into clear narratives, recommendations, and next steps.
You are highly pragmatic and outcome-oriented, with strong judgment about what is genuinely useful and scalable versus what is merely interesting in theory.
You are hands-on and execution-minded, equally comfortable building the deck, designing the briefing, shaping the visual narrative, synthesizing the workflow, or pressure-testing the use case yourself.
You are comfortable balancing immediate opportunities with long-term program building, creating the processes, materials, and operating rhythms that allow successful ideas to scale.
You are deeply curious about how AI will reshape enterprise functions and have a strong point of view on how these technologies can create practical value inside complex organizations.
You actively experiment with AI tools and agentic workflows to improve your own effectiveness and develop an informed perspective on how AI should change enterprise work.
