Core Responsibilities & Expectations
As a Director of Strategy, you will be the primary strategic advisor for a dedicated portfolio of clients, guiding them to maximize their impact on platforms like Engaging Networks and WordPress and helping them achieve their mission-critical goals.

We expect you to move beyond simple best practices, proactively identifying opportunities to expand our clients’ digital programs and guiding them in defining and measuring success through innovative, data-driven solutions.
- Project Execution & Cross-Functional Collaboration – As a Director, you are accountable for the strategic integrity of projects from inception to launch. A core mandate of this role is to foster deep, continuous collaboration with our project managers, designers, and developers, breaking down silos to ensure seamless execution. From initial scoping through final QA, you will be embedded with the project team to identify risks early and ensure the strategic vision is successfully implemented. You will have the authority to guide project execution, ensuring that all deliverables align with the strategic goals established with the client and that our work meets the highest standards of quality and impact.
- Team Contribution & Professional Growth – You will foster a culture of open communication and continuous improvement by mentoring colleagues and sharing insights. This role requires a commitment to continuous, self-driven learning to stay at the forefront of emerging trends in nonprofit technology, analytics, and digital marketing.
