About the role

  • This position reports to the Senior Director of the Digital Agency.
  • This is an opportunistically billable position.
  • This position is primarily evaluated on delivery success, team feedback, client feedback, growth of key accounts, forecast accuracy, and profitability of their portfolio.

Responsibilities

  • Executive Partnership: Act as the primary escalation point and strategic advisor for client executives, ensuring TELUS Digital is viewed as a "Doctor" (consultative partner) rather than a "Waiter" (order taker).
  • Multi-Disciplinary Leadership: Directly coach and mentor Product, Engineering, and Delivery leaders and ICs, focusing on their ability to lead their own squads and navigate complex client dynamics.
  • High-Performance Culture: Conduct 1:1s and performance reviews that prioritize radical candor and growth. Deliver performance feedback upward and across disciplines with grace and clarity.
  • Drive the commercial success of a $10M-$15M portfolio, overseeing Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs) to align delivery progress with the client's long-term business goals.

Requirements

  • 10+ years in the technology industry, with at least 4+ years in a senior leadership role within a professional services or agency environment.
  • You have successfully led the delivery of complex, custom-built software solutions from discovery to launch.
  • Experience acting as a "Doctor, not a Waiter"-navigating the executive ladder to move from a vendor relationship to a strategic partnership.
  • Exceptional ability to navigate "recovery situations" or high-stakes client negotiations with poise, clarity, and a solution-oriented mindset.
  • Ability to translate complex delivery data into compelling narratives for Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs) and executive stakeholders.
  • The Boston office is not required to be in the office on Wednesdays.
  • Proven track record managing a diverse portfolio of client accounts (ideally totaling $10M+ in annual revenue) with a focus on retention and organic growth.
  • Extensive experience managing and coaching leaders within Engineering, Product, and Design. You have proven success in driving cross-functional collaborations (i.e., a "Triforce" or similar model), ensuring these distinct disciplines operate as a cohesive unit to deliver client value.
  • Deep understanding of the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) and Agile methodologies. You have successfully led the delivery of complex, custom-built software solutions from discovery to launch.
  • Strong command of agency business metrics, including Gross Margin, Forecast Accuracy, and Effective Billable Rates.
