Client Deployment Lead, AI (US market)
TheSoul Group is seeking a Client Deployment Lead to join our team and help mid-market companies transform into AI-Native organizations. This role is critical to our go-to-market strategy and involves embedding on-site with CEOs to drive real outcomes.
Responsibilities
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
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
Requirements
Based in any of these locations: Austin TX, New York, San Francisco
Your local CEO and founder network is a core part of what you bring to this role
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
Thrives in ambiguity — operating effectively with incomplete information, shifting requirements, and no fixed playbook
Willing and energized to be on-site with clients (:30-60% of your time)
Likely background: top-tier strategy firm (Engagement Manager → Associate Partner level) or a proven in-house transformation operator
Hands-on experience with AI / data tooling is a strong plus
Benefits
Compensation: A competitive base calibrated to your market and seniority, plus a performance bonus tied to delivered outcomes
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 GML
Location: Based in London. On-site with clients during active deployments (:30-60% within Europe)
