Enterprise Solution Lead

Code and Theory is building a portfolio of enterprise solutions co-developed with a major platform partner. These are named, defined, and actively sold solutions — designed to open new use cases for the platform while creating direct commercial opportunity for C&T. The program is live, the first solution is in market, and six more are in development.

We're looking for a program-level strategist to own the end-to-end strategic integrity of the entire portfolio — working across product strategy, brand and messaging, business development, and sales simultaneously. The person in this seat needs to be credible walking into a room with senior platform partner leadership, a Fortune 500 CMO, or an internal creative lead, and effective in all three.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Oversee and pressure-test the strategic definition of each solution across the portfolio
• Ensure every solution has a clear problem framing, a defensible point of differentiation, and a sound commercial rationale
• Push back when a solution is being defined from the inside out rather than from the market in
• Keep sales narratives, ICP definitions, and vertical strategies grounded in actual product strategy
• Catch drift between what the product can deliver and how it's being sold before it reaches the field
• Be in the room when co-sell motions with the platform partner need re-examination
• Own the quality bar for messaging across all seven solutions
• Commission and review positioning frameworks; ensure narrative consistency across the portfolio
• Make the editorial calls when individual solution messaging drifts from what's defensible
• Oversee everything that goes into the field, like decks, competitive positioning, proof-of-value narratives, speaking notes, and event materials
• Govern the external voice of the program in the form of bylines, conference presentations, press pitches, and co-branded content
• Maintain and deepen the strategic relationship with the platform partner by understanding their product roadmap well enough to anticipate where solutions should go next
• Ensure nothing C&T builds or publishes undermines the co-sell relationship

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

• 12+ years across strategy, product, and marketing in environments requiring both analytical rigor and market intuition
• Demonstrated experience leading complex, multi-stakeholder programs — setting strategic direction and holding quality across parallel workstreams, not just managing projects
• Genuine fluency in martech and enterprise software: CDPs, journey analytics, content supply chains, workflow automation. Specific enough for platform sellers, accessible enough for CMOs
• Experience creating or overseeing messaging frameworks, sales narratives, and positioning documents. You can tell when a claim holds up and when a statistic is just decoration
• Enough GTM exposure to critically review sales motions, vertical strategies, and ICP definitions against the product strategy underneath them
• Strong written communication skills — language precision is a form of strategic precision in this role
• Comfort operating in ambiguity: making strategy calls with incomplete information, under commercial pressure, within a partnership relationship that requires care.

NICE TO HAVE

• Background in consulting, brand strategy, or enterprise software go-to-market
• Experience working within platform-dependent or co-sell ecosystems — agency-side, partner-side, or client-side
• Exposure to martech, adtech, or enterprise data platforms
• C-suite presentation experience on both client and partner sides
