· Manage and scale a global, multidisciplinary team of designers, strategists, researchers, and content specialists across onshore and offshore locations — fostering a unified culture of creativity, accountability, and collaboration

· Partner with sales and executive leadership to drive new business growth, shaping go-to-market strategies, leading pitches, crafting proposals, and developing compelling narratives that convert opportunities into long-term client partnerships

· Own and drive a “land and expand” client strategy, nurturing executive relationships, identifying growth opportunities within existing accounts, and expanding the footprint of XD services across engagements

· Champion innovation and thought leadership, defining and advancing new service offerings, publishing perspectives, and positioning the organization as a leader in experience design, AI-enabled design, and digital transformation

· Build and evolve team capabilities, identifying skill gaps, hiring strategically, and investing in continuous learning to ensure the team remains ahead of industry trends and client needs

· Balance long-term vision with short-term execution, ensuring delivery excellence while continuously evolving the practice for future growth

· Strong leadership presence with the ability to influence across disciplines, geographies, and seniority levels

· Proven ability to hire, grow, and evolve teams, balancing craft excellence with scalable delivery

· Comfort working with little process in place, actively looking for ways to solve problems proactively — leading teams through ambiguity and organizational shifts

· A strong point of view, an open mind, and the drive to inspire company leadership, as well as your team


Tools + Skillsets

· Extensive experience in digital design within a digital agency or studio environment, including a strong portfolio of work samples, and expertise marketing, product design, and strategy
