Head of Strategic Projects

**The Role**:
LucaNet has ambitious growth plans over the next few years through delivery of the recently defined Value Creation Program (VCP) in addition to organic growth. As our very first Head of Strategic Projects, your role will include a mixture of strategic leadership, program management, and directly supporting the needs of the executive board. As Head of Strategic Projects, you will collaborate with appropriate partners to anticipate, create, and facilitate the rhythm of the business for the executive team (i.e., monthly/quarterly roadmap reviews, M&A/PMI activity, business transformation & value creation programs, talent reviews, yearly headcount planning, all hands, regular business reviews, and staff meetings). You will manage strategic, cross-functional projects and assist members of the executive team with writing and reviewing documents and proposals. You will foresee leaders’ needs, support and facilitate the annual strategic planning process, manage budgets, and research and procure additional resources and services for the organization. You will exercise significant autonomy and strong judgement in this position, while making recommendations, respectfully challenging leaders as needed, and wholly committing to decisions.

Everybody’s different here and we like it that way. At LucaNet, we are powered by the uniqueness of our people and are committed to creating an inclusive work environment where everyone can grow and feels respected. The more voices we have represented in our business, the more we will all thrive, contribute, and be forward-thinking.

People don’t fit into neat boxes, we know that. If you think you’d excel in this position, even if you don’t cover all points, we really want to get to know you and why you’re great for the role. Please avoid including your picture, age, and marital status in your CV.
