Executive Transformation Program Lead, Embedded… at OpenAI · San…

ABOUT THE TEAM Our AI Transformation team builds scalable, high-touch motions that help enterprise leaders move from curiosity about AI to practical transformation. We partner closely with Sales, Marketing, Product, Solutions, Customer Success, Legal/Security, and other stakeholders to turn executive experiences into real business outcomes. ABOUT THE ROLE We’re looking for a senior leader to build and run a new OpenAI executive transformation motion that turns “aha” moments into hands-on execution inside customer organizations. You will design a repeatable program that creates executives who are internal champions, embeds adoption into their operating rhythms, and feeds real-world learning back into OpenAI. WHAT YOU’LL DO - Define and launch the Executive Transformation Program - Build the program strategy, operating model, quality bar, and “embedded experience” mechanics - Design invitation-only executive build sessions and cohorts where leaders leave with tangible workflows to automate - Convert executive experiences into account motion - Ensure every attendee has ownership and a clear follow-up path - Help attendees become internal champions, with shareable artifacts that spread adoption - Partner with Sales/Marketing to connect experiences to pursuits, expansion, and executive relationships - Run the embedded experience & create transformation artifacts - Design post-event follow-through: ownership, handoffs, content reuse, internal artifacts - Produce outputs like transformation memos, build-session artifacts, how-to videos, agent patterns, enablement assets, etc. - Represent field learning internally - Bring operator signal back to Product/Solutions/GTM so OpenAI learns where customers are today (org readiness, compliance, data) - Build the operating system - Define staffing model, handoffs, measurement, quality standards, and repeatable assets to scale from founder-led sessions to a programmatic motion - Orchestrate cross-functional execution - Align stakeholder roles, handoffs, escalation paths, and maintain a strong customer experience - Measure and scale - Define leading/lagging indicators (engagement, champion creation, follow-up completion, pipeline influence, adoption) - Use qualitative and quantitative signal to decide what to keep, change, invest in, and scale WHO YOU ARE - 12+ years of experience in B2B technology across executive enablement, field marketing, transformation consulting, customer success, or enterprise GTM - 5+ years leading complex cross-functional programs/teams - Proven experience designing executive-facing workshops/communities/transformation programs for senior decision-makers - Hands-on fluency with AI tools and agent workflows; credible with technical teams while translating business workflows into artifacts - Strong program-management discipline (timelines, measurement, operating standards) - Executive presence and judgment; comfortable working with C-suite and influencing across orgs - Data-driven: can separate vanity engagement from meaningful signal (champion creation, account progression, adoption potential) ENCOURAGEMENT TO APPLY We recognize that strong candidates may come from a variety of professional backgrounds, including technology leadership, product development, enterprise transformation, consulting, research, or public sector innovation.
