About the role

The NYC-based, design-focused materials marketplace seeks a Director of Strategic Initiatives to partner with the CEO, translate ideas into action with urgency and rigor, and maintain high standards across the organization. You will lead CEO-driven initiatives end-to-end, align cross-functional teams, manage risks, and maintain clear communication while supporting strategic planning, board meetings, and executive communications.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
