WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

We are seeking a client-facing Portfolio Value Lead who brings structure, clarity, and business insight to the front end of the delivery lifecycle. This individual partners closely with client stakeholders to evaluate incoming requests, uncover the underlying business need, and ensure initiatives are aligned to strategic priorities before they enter delivery. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable facilitating executive conversations, conducting discovery, and translating complex business challenges into actionable opportunities.

Successful candidates typically come from consulting, product management, portfolio management, or senior business analysis backgrounds and have a proven ability to bridge business and technical teams. You are naturally curious, comfortable navigating ambiguity, and skilled at helping organizations make informed investment decisions based on value, impact, and strategic alignment.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

Reporting to our Delivery Operations Manager, as a Full-Time Specialist on our team, you will serve as the primary point of entry for business demand, guiding requests from initial intake through prioritization and delivery readiness. You will work directly with business leaders to assess objectives, define success measures, build lean business cases, and document requirements that provide clear direction for technical and delivery teams. Your ability to separate stated requests from underlying business needs will help ensure that investments are focused on the highest-value opportunities.

You will collaborate closely with Solution Engineers and delivery teams to ensure business intent, technical feasibility, and portfolio priorities remain aligned throughout the intake and planning process. By driving disciplined discovery, consistent prioritization, and effective stakeholder engagement, you will help clients maximize the value of their data, analytics, and technology investments while continuously strengthening portfolio governance and demand management practices.
