About The Position

This is a brand-new leadership position designed to build, mature, and lead the strategy for the Customer Center of Expertise (COE).

You will lead a cross-functional team of four functional consultants, serving as a critical liaison to ensure value realization and adherence to "clean core" principles. This role requires travel to Harrisburg, PA. The travel schedule is flexible, typically following a "2 weeks on, 2 weeks off" onsite model that does not necessarily have to be consistent. While the company is open to candidates interested in relocating to the Harrisburg area, please note that relocation assistance is not provided.
