Summary Generated by Built In

TheSoul Group is a global media company with over a decade of experience building and operating digital businesses at scale. With a presence across 60 platforms, content distributed in 21 languages, and more than 100 billion monthly views, we have established one of the largest and most operationally sophisticated media footprints in the world. Our remote-first team, spanning 85+ countries, has grown by solving — at real scale — the exact organisational and operational challenges most companies struggle with.

That operational depth is the foundation of Valis — TheSoul Group's brand new business and AI platform for enterprise transformation. Valis is an institutional AI operating layer for mid-market organisations (roughly 200–2,000 employees). It sits across a company's systems, runs one shared, org-wide "brain" on everything the company knows, and applies encoded operator judgment on every answer — so the value of AI compounds for the company, not just for individuals using per-seat chatbots.

Valis is already proven in production — built from real transformation work, encoding operational experience rather than theory — and we are now scaling its deployment to mid-market companies worldwide.

We are seeking a Client Deployment Lead, AI to embed on-site alongside mid-market CEOs and make their AI-Native transformation real on the ground. You work as a tight pod: you on-site owning the CEO relationship and the result and you drive the rollout to a finance-verified outcome, with elite remote engineers shipping the product configuration behind you. Every CEO who watches you land the transformation becomes the proof that wins the next one. This role is the engine of our go-to-market.

Responsibilities
  • Own the client-CEO relationship and the executive steering committee — as a peer, with real decision rights.
  • Run the transformation cadence: weekly reviews, monthly finance-verified value reviews, and quarterly business reviews.
  • Drive a fast, fixed-scope first win on the client's real data, then lead the full rollout (leadership first, then the wider team).
  • Translate client problems into crisp, build-ready specs for remote engineers; own adoption and sign-off.
  • Be personally accountable for a finance-verified outcome the client can see in their P&L.
  • Build a portfolio of 2–3 marquee CEO accounts as each engagement matures.
  • Own end-to-end rollout management — from kick-off through adoption, sign-off, and handover — ensuring every phase lands on time and to a measurable outcome.
  • Codify the method after each deployment so the next one requires less ramp-up.

Requirements
    • A track record of owning real outcomes — you have moved a P&L or shipped a transformation, not just advised on one.
    • CEO-room presence: ability to sit across from a mid-market CEO as a peer and earn organisational trust quickly.
    • Technically literate enough to prototype, spec work, and direct engineers — you shape the solution, you don't wait for one.
    • You thrive in ambiguity — operating effectively with incomplete information, shifting requirements, and no fixed playbook.
    • Willing and energised to be on-site with clients (~30–60% travel).
    • Likely background: top-tier strategy firm (Engagement Manager → Associate Partner) or a proven in-house transformation operator.
    • Hands-on experience with AI / data tooling is a strong plus.

Benefits
    • Compensation: A competitive base calibrated to your market and seniority, plus a performance bonus tied to delivered outcomes.
    • Equity: Meaningful, founder-tier ownership — this is the real upside, and it's sized to match.
    • Authority: Real decision rights and an interim-executive mandate inside the client where granted. You own the result.
    • Trajectory: A portfolio of marquee CEO relationships and a clear path to Regional GM for MENA.
    • Location: On-site with the client during deployment (~30–60% travel across the MENA region); your home base is flexible.
    • Why AI makes this seat more valuable, not less: Valis automates the coordination, reporting and status layer of a company. This role sits on the other side of that line: CEO trust, judgment under ambiguity, and accountability for a real outcome are exactly what don't automate. As the platform gets stronger, the seat compounds in leverage — it doesn't erode.

Skills Required

  • Proven track record of delivering measurable outcomes (moved a P&L or shipped a transformation)
  • Ability to operate in the CEO room as a peer and quickly earn organisational trust
  • Technical literacy to prototype, spec work, and direct engineers
  • Comfort operating in ambiguity with shifting requirements and incomplete information
  • Willingness and energy to be on-site with clients (~30-60% travel)
  • Background from a top-tier strategy firm (Engagement Manager -> Associate Partner) or proven in-house transformation operator
