Own the client-CEO relationship and the executive steering committee — as a peer, with real decision rights.
Run the transformation cadence: weekly reviews, monthly finance-verified value reviews, and quarterly business reviews.
Drive a fast, fixed-scope first win on the client's real data, then lead the full rollout (leadership first, then the wider team).
Translate client problems into crisp, build-ready specs for remote engineers; own adoption and sign-off.
Be personally accountable for a finance-verified outcome the client can see in their P&L.
Build a portfolio of 2–3 marquee CEO accounts as each engagement matures.
Own end-to-end rollout management — from kick-off through adoption, sign-off, and handover — ensuring every phase lands on time and to a measurable outcome.
Codify the method after each deployment so the next one requires less ramp-up.

A track record of owning real outcomes — you have moved a P&L or shipped a transformation, not just advised on one.
CEO-room presence: ability to sit across from a mid-market CEO as a peer and earn organisational trust quickly.
Technically literate enough to prototype, spec work, and direct engineers — you shape the solution, you don't wait for one.
You thrive in ambiguity — operating effectively with incomplete information, shifting requirements, and no fixed playbook.
Willing and energised to be on-site with clients (~30–60% travel).
Likely background: top-tier strategy firm (Engagement Manager → Associate Partner) or a proven in-house transformation operator.
Hands-on experience with AI / data tooling is a strong plus.

Compensation: A competitive base calibrated to your market and seniority, plus a performance bonus tied to delivered outcomes.
Equity: Meaningful, founder-tier ownership — this is the real upside, and it's sized to match.
Authority: Real decision rights and an interim-executive mandate inside the client where granted. You own the result.
Trajectory: A portfolio of marquee CEO relationships and a clear path to Regional GM for Latin America.
Location: On-site with the client during deployment (~30–60% travel across LATAM); your home base is flexible.
Why AI makes this seat more valuable, not less: Valis automates the coordination, reporting and status layer of a company. This role sits on the other side of that line: CEO trust, judgment under ambiguity, and accountability for a real outcome are exactly what don't automate. As the platform gets stronger, the seat compounds in leverage — it doesn't erode.
