If you have a passion, the background, and applicable skills for defining future field experiences, this may be the opportunity you’ve been looking for This role will report to the VP, Large Teams & Private Client Group, focused on expansion of service & capabilities for career advisors and their clients (immediate focus on Large Teams). This role requires strong enterprise and field collaboration, with proven experience in both how sophisticated practices operate and serve complex clients at scale and in delivery of large cross-enterprise initiatives. Additionally, this role will partner closely with the VP, Large Teams, key stakeholders, and program leadership to operationalize and scale the Large Teams framework in support of go to market, scale the business, community, and servicing initiatives. This role would work with Advisor Practices, Advisor Solutions, and Field function leadership, enterprise partners, industry experts, and the field to position NM as the premier platform for large integrated teams to build, grow, and transition their firms at NM.

The Senior Director will be tightly connected to other Large Teams work leads, accountable to the VP, Large Teams for strategic alignment and business value realization and to the Program Lead for execution quality and delivery rigor. The Senior Director will lead a cross-enterprise (matrixed) team to drive the workstream objectives and serve as a subject matter expert on key accountabilities—including through leadership, field, and industry-facing presentations. Additionally, the role would work to develop cross-functional relationships to create advocates for large teams within the Home Office, the field, and strategic partners in the industry.

Lead a matrixed team to deliver on workstream OKRs, including defining core business objectives and key work required to deliver results, aligning stakeholders and cross-enterprise team members, and managing execution and risks to successfully realize outcomes.
Bring thought leadership and a creative problem-solving mindset to key opportunities and challenges facing the operationalization of the Large Teams enterprise segmented strategy. This includes building and leveraging stakeholder relationships to advance the Large Teams OKRs and optimize the impact of investments across the enterprise in this priority field segment (will include additional topics as required).
Cultivate and leverage cross-enterprise partnerships that will provide inputs, support, and/or OKR accountabilities as part of interdependencies between Large Teams, PCG, and other CD and enterprise initiatives.
Bachelor's degree in business, strategy, finance, change management, or related field or an equivalent combination of education and/or progressively responsible work experience.
Minimum ten years of progressively responsible experience in financial services or other business, field consulting, and distribution functions, with experience in business consulting, and/or portfolio management a preferred skillset.
Ability to manage and lead a matrixed team, building and maintaining engagement and positivity working on highly visible, ambiguous, and critical multi-year strategic efforts. Must be excellent at synthesizing, distilling, and translating complex objectives into discrete bodies of work that accountable delivery and business partners can drive, organizing and managing the work and the cross-enterprise matrixed team through to successful execution.
Has established credibility with the field based on a deep understanding of how large teams operate, go to market and what challenges they're facing. Is able to build productive relationships and influence without direct authority (home office, 3rd parties, and field). Must be able to understand how initiatives drive business outcomes – deconstruct SLT- and IS-level OKRs, evaluate ROI, map work to leading/lagging indicators, etc. Ability to then drive work through the processes and procedures within NM – for example, understanding how to navigate Investable Structures, prioritization, funding, EPMC reporting, etc. to ensure leadership buy-in and execution quality.
Ability to look beyond the status quo, identify or elicit unconventional solution options, and be tactfully bold in testing hypotheses.
