Director of Enterprise Workshops

About The Role

The Director of Enterprise Workshops at Section is responsible for running the workshop business end to end. This role involves owning and running the workshop business day to day, ensuring workshop quality, managing the instructor bench, and leading the development and management of the workshop content library. The ideal candidate will personally design and deliver workshops, including high-stakes sessions for C-suite audiences and flagship client moments.

• Own the workshop business day to day: capacity, scheduling, instructor staffing, and delivery operations, supported by a full-time program manager who reports to you.
• Own workshop quality end to end: define what excellent looks like, build the systems that make it repeatable (presenter prep, content standards, post-session debriefs), and act fast when a session falls short.
• Own the workshop content library: what we teach, how it’s structured, and how it stays current in a market that moves monthly – including building new sessions from scratch, from executive strategy formats to technical hands-on builds.
• Partner with sales and account teams on scoping and shaping workshop engagements that fit what clients actually need.

What You'll Own

• Run the workshop business day to day: capacity, scheduling, instructor staffing, and delivery operations, supported by a full-time program manager who reports to you.
• Own workshop quality end to end: define what excellent looks like, build the systems that make it repeatable (presenter prep, content standards, post-session debriefs), and act fast when a session falls short.
• Own the workshop content library: what we teach, how it’s structured, and how it stays current in a market that moves monthly – including building new sessions from scratch, from executive strategy formats to technical hands-on builds.
• Partner with sales and account teams on scoping and shaping workshop engagements that fit what clients actually need.

What Success Looks Like

• Quality is consistent: clients and account teams trust that any session, with any instructor, will land.
• The instructor bench is deeper, better developed, and less dependent on any single person (including you).
• Workshop content stays ahead of the market, with new formats shipping as the technology and client needs evolve.
• The workshop business runs without your manager in the loop day to day.

What We're Looking For

• A proven room presence with senior executives: you can hold a room of skeptical CEOs, CFOs, and VPs and leave them convinced, and you’ve done it many times.
• Genuinely technical with AI: you use frontier tools daily, can build a live demo or agent yourself, and can teach practitioners to do the same in tools like Claude Code – you don’t need an engineer to make your content work.
• Able to work high-low: deciding workshop strategy and portfolio direction while also prepping an instructor for Thursday’s session, often in the same day.
• Experience managing people and a distributed or contract talent bench: you hold a high bar without burning relationships.
• A systems builder, not a hero: when something breaks, your instinct is to fix the process, not just the session.
• A plain, fast communicator: no jargon, no theater.
