About the Role

The Head of Strategic Initiatives reports directly to the CFO and is part of the Office of the CFO, partnering closely with the VP of Accounting, VP of Finance, VP of Corporate Development, and General Counsel. In this role, you act as an extension of the CFO and lead execution on the organization’s most important strategic priorities, including enterprise systems transformation, operational improvement, and growth-oriented initiatives.

You will own the CFO’s strategic initiative portfolio by coordinating cross-functional work, aligning stakeholders, tracking progress, and making sure key initiatives deliver measurable results. The role calls for sharp business judgment, strong analytical thinking, a confident executive presence, and the ability to drive influence across teams without formal authority.

As Zeitview continues to grow, the company is facing greater complexity in systems, processes, and organizational design. Many priority efforts span multiple functions and do not belong to just one department. This position provides dedicated execution leadership to keep these efforts moving, enabling the CFO and executive team to stay focused on strategic decisions while ensuring initiatives stay on track and produce outcomes.
