Client Solutions sits within Cadent's Sales Strategy & Solutions organization. The team functions to make solution selling sharper: shaping strategic narratives, packaging Cadent's solutions into deal-winning sales plays, and serving as the connective hub between Product, Data, Audiences, Inventory, Analytics and the commercial (GTM) teams. Client Solutions partners directly with Sales on high-value RFPs, custom meeting decks, vendor days and strategic guidebooks — always in service of winning, retaining and growing Cadent's most valuable client relationships. 

Client Solutions is a team of strategic individual contributors. Every member owns a mix of solution ownership, vertical ownership and high-value account support, and is expected to operate with a bias for action and a closer's mindset — being deployed dynamically to the business's most critical priorities.

The Director, Client Solutions is a senior individual-contributor role responsible for owning the GTM positioning, packaging and go-to-market narrative for a defined set of core solutions, and for providing strategic support on the team's highest-value accounts and opportunities. The Director works in close partnership with Sales leadership, Product Marketing, Marketing, Planning and Sales Enablement to ensure consistent, differentiated storytelling across the client lifecycle.

• Excellent narrative and storytelling skills — able to translate complex, multi-faceted solutions into clear, client-ready positioning. 

• Proven ability to operate as a strategic individual contributor: self-directed, comfortable owning outcomes without formal people-leadership authority. 

• Strong cross-functional collaborator, with experience partnering across sales, product marketing, marketing and enablement teams. 

• Comfortable operating in an agile, fast-moving environment with shifting priorities and a bias for action.
