Summary
The Director, Strategy is a senior operator embedded within Lazer's internal strategy team, a lean group that functions as the company's internal problem-solving unit. Reporting to the SVP, Corporate Development & Strategy, this role is pointed at the company's most consequential and most difficult problems: the ones without a clear owner, a clean answer, or a comfortable timeline. This role is built for execution. The Director takes on enterprise-level challenges that require cross-functional leadership, move faster than a traditional project structure can support, and carry real consequences if they stall. You will be expected to quickly understand what's broken, form a sharp point of view, and drive toward resolution with urgency and rigor. The Director moves fast, earns trust across all levels of the organization, and gets things done without a big team or a long runway. Work gets finished, not handed off. The role also plugs into M&A activity as needed, covering target evaluation, diligence, and post-close integration, as part of the broader Corporate Development team.

Job Description
Enterprise & Executive Initiatives
  • Own the initiatives that are too important to fail and too complex for any single function to lead, working directly with the executive team to define scope, drive momentum, and deliver results
  • Walk into messy, ambiguous situations and walk out with a clear diagnosis, a defensible recommendation, and a plan you're prepared to execute yourself
  • Build new capabilities and ways of working where gaps exist, without waiting for full consensus or a finished blueprint
Mergers & Acquisitions
  • Run the work on M&A deals, from sizing targets and stress-testing assumptions in diligence to building the integration plan that actually gets executed
  • Stay on through close, own the hard post-integration work, and make sure the value the deal was built on actually shows up in the business
  • Connect acquisition strategy to what the business actually needs, grounding every deal in operational and strategic reality
  • Shift fluidly between strategic initiatives and M&A as priorities demand. The work drives the schedule, not the other way around.
Executive & Board Support
  • Work directly alongside the CEO and executive leadership team on their highest-priority problems, serving as a trusted operator who can independently take complex work from problem to resolution
  • Build the materials that drive how leadership runs the business, including Monthly Operating Reviews, performance narratives, and the cadence of decision-making at the top of the company
  • Develop Board-level materials that are clear and well-grounded, translating complex operational and financial reality into narratives that hold up under scrutiny
  • Help leadership cut through noise, sharpen priorities, and stay focused on the decisions and actions that matter most
Commercial & Growth Initiatives
  • Dig into commercial challenges with the same rigor as operational ones, including GTM strategy, customer retention, sales effectiveness, and revenue performance
  • Embed with commercial leadership to understand what's not working and build solutions with a clear path to implementation
  • Identify the biggest opportunities to improve revenue performance, margin, retention, and pricing, and pursue them with urgency
