The Sr. Director for Professional Services will be directly responsible for revenue and profit margin for a new department focused on post-implementation services. We believe there is a market for a profitable suite of service offerings. These need to be created, researched, tested, implemented and then scaled. The individual occupying this role will be a senior member of the team skilled in building a services business from scratch, working with multiple departments who are already testing some concepts and driving value-added customer engagements. They will drive research on suggested service products to ensure there is a big enough market, test pricing and profitability. They will test different offerings through existing staff before building a team and scaling out the department. They will be responsible for revenue, margin, customer adoption/sentiment, and utilization (eventually).
