Kahoot! is redefining how the modern workforce learns, engages, and collaborates. We are seeking a high-profile, strategic Program Director to be the face and voice of our "At Work" segment. This isn't just about managing a business line; it’s about evangelizing the future of corporate learning.
You will be the primary advocate for Kahoot! in the corporate world—shaping our narrative, influencing the global L&D (Learning & Development) community, and bridging the gap between our high-level vision and commercial execution.
Your Role: The Lead Evangelist & Strategist
In this role, you will report to the CSO and work closely with the Executive Team to drive the following pillars:
Market Evangelism & Thought Leadership
- The Voice of the Segment: Serve as the primary spokesperson for Kahoot! at Work. You will represent the company at global industry events, in the media, and during high-stakes presentations to partners and owners.
- Narrative Shaping: Craft the "At Work" story. You will define how Kahoot! solves the most pressing challenges in corporate training, employee engagement, and internal communication.
- Industry Influence: Build relationships with key influencers, analysts, and corporate leaders to position Kahoot! as an essential tool for the modern enterprise.
Strategic Vision & Segment Growth
- Executive Partnership: Collaborate with the Executive Team to define and execute the long-term vision for the "Work" business area.
- Market Intelligence: Act as the "eyes and ears" of the company. Deep-dive into competitive landscapes and emerging trends to ensure Kahoot! stays ahead of the curve.
- Needle-Moving Initiatives: Lead mission-critical projects that accelerate product adoption and drive global revenue growth.
The Bridge: Product, Sales & Customer Success
- Commercial Solution Architect: Translate market needs and customer pain points into impactful commercial products and initiatives.
- Cross-Functional Alignment: Partner with Product, Sales, and Marketing to ensure our solutions aren't just built well, but are "sold right" and resonate with the reality of corporate trainers and HR leaders.
- Roadblock Removal: Act as the operational "glue" to align priorities across departments, ensuring the "At Work" strategy is executed without friction.
Requirements
Who you are:
- The Industry Veteran: 10+ years of experience in Commercial Product Development, Product Marketing, or Strategic Management—specifically within the SaaS/Enterprise space.
- Domain Expertise: A deep understanding of Corporate L&D, HR Tech, or employee engagement. You understand the language of corporate trainers and the pressures of IT professionals.
- Stage Presence: You are an exceptional communicator with a "presence." You are as comfortable on a keynote stage or in front of a camera as you are in a boardroom.
Your Toolkit
- Master Storyteller: You have a proven ability to take complex product features and turn them into compelling value propositions that inspire action.
- Strategic & Operational Dual-Threat: You can "zoom out" to craft a 3-year vision and "zoom in" to ensure a product launch stays on track.
- Collaborative Leader: You excel at leading through influence, bringing together diverse teams (Sales, Tech, Marketing) toward a singular goal.
Work Style
- High Energy & Adaptive: You thrive in high-stakes environments and are energized by public advocacy and stakeholder negotiation.
- Insight-Driven: You don't guess; you use market data and customer feedback to back up your evangelism.
Bonus Points
- The Practitioner’s View: Hands-on experience in Learning & Development or professional training. If you’ve been the "person at the front of the room" yourself, you’ll fit right in.
